Dear Barbara, you came to the right place. I also had silicone breast implants and suffer from Fibromyalgia, Bipolar Disorder, panic attack/anxiety, short term memory loss, loss of coordination, chronic sinusitis, hypothyrodism and asthma. this is a wonderful support group. I cannot beleave your insurance won't cover to have your implants out. I have medical coverage from the state and they covered mine. there have been other ways. Perhaps the ladies here know. You poor dear, you've really been through the mill. there is truely hope here. We band together and help each other through every stage. Patty is the founder of this group. There are many good articles, links and messages here. there is soooooooo much support and love here, we really care for each other, so keep writing, I hope you find a way soon to get yours out. I know God has answered many prayers here. He is there for you

too and loves you, Hugs and Support, Baboola57@... wrote:

Hello my name is Barbara, i am 46 years old and i mean the word OLD because that's how i feel....lol and i have two daughters and i am a grandma of 2 granddaughters.... i was reading the US weekly magazine and i was an article on Kacey long, and the web site implantsout.com....i went on this and found this site....i am not sure if this is the right group or it i am allowed to even join as i have silicone implants that were put in me in the year of 79...i have many many health issues, including lupus, fibromyalgia, kidney disease, sjogrens, GERD, epstein barr, chronic fatigue, and many more that it just depresses me to even go on, i have had a total of 33 surgeries on various parts of my body, and in having one very serious one with my back, the lupus attacked my central nervous system so i also suffer from panic/anxiety disorder on top of everything else.....i am at a loss right

now as insurance refuses to cover to have these removed, and most doctors do not believe the connection....i am one of 15 and not one person in my family suffers from lupus etc............i guess i just needed a place to vent and i hope this is the right place for me to go too.....i thank you for listening to me, and i appreciate any feedback..thank you Barbara

Medicaid pays for implant Removal. Medicare does also. You need to have

someone who knows how to get it covered. Many P.S. do not take Medicaid,

but Dr. Huang of Denver does. I am unsure of many of the others, as

this is my experience.

Lynda, where did you get your information on, (Medicaid would pay for removal of implants). Will Medicaid for it if you are living in one state and have to travel to another state to have implants removed. Thanks for information

Neenie,

Depends on whether you have State Medicaid or Medicaid from SSI or SSD. If

you have the latter, yes, it will pay in any state. Not many P.S. take it,

but some will.

I have sent patients to Dr. Huang that had Medicaid, and she got it to pay,

so that is how I found out.
