Guest guest Posted April 6, 2004 Report Share Posted April 6, 2004 I want to do the same thing with the pamphlets. I was at the doctor yesterday and he's a good Christian man and he believes that I was made sick by my implants. He's a gynecologist and is very popular around here. I know he would let me put some in his waiting area and exam rooms. I can't wait to get them! And of course I'll pay for shipping and printing Colleen, just let me know how much. Diamonds, I always react to things like the 1 in a million will and every time I would read the side effects I would get them too. When I got the implants I refused to read what could happen. Of course I was told by the PS that they were safe and the only risks were surgical - like problems with anesthesia and stuff like that. He did tell me what the pamphlet said and that a " small amount of women " reported auto-immune illnesses but that nothing had been proven that they were because of the implants. I briefly looked at the pamphlet and then ripped it up and threw it in the trash in his office. I figured I was saving myself from reading into each thing and then making myself have what it said. Not only that, but I was a healthy 33 year old. I had no clue what an auto-immune illness was - I had never heard of that before and I never looked it up. I didn't even know how to use the Internet back then. When I started getting sick I blamed it on everything but the implants. I'll read the side- effects now. I won't ever make that mistake again either. Pam --- In , " dimonds68 " <XENA6881@a...> wrote: > Hello Colleen, how are you feeling? I have been trying to catch up > on some posts here.

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 Pam, I've had implants for 20 years, and everything that you said stands true with me. I don't even think my had me sign consent forms for all of my surgeries. He did the last one, I know. I"ve finally got brave enough to have mine removed. I just don't know who or where. Where do you live and who is your doctor, if you don't mind my asking. Thanks, Neenie Pam <nannapam3103@...> wrote: I want to do the same thing with the pamphlets.
