I was catching up on all the posts and I couldn't belive the posts

about the metal taste. I had that when I had implants and never

contected it to them. Since explanting it has never come back so I

forgot about it. But I remember that I would brush my teeth all the

time thinking that might help. (it didn't) I do remember that at the

same time I had the taste I was having trouble with my kidney. I

don't know if there is a contection or not.

There are so many knew faces in the group, Im sorry that I have not

gotten to know you all.

I too would love to be involved in a book. Months ago I even

sujested that all it would have to be is our stories, in our own

words. I have printed out some of our stories and handed them to my

son's girl friends and there friends who have been thinking about

implants. knock on wood but so far it has been enough to stop any of

them from getting implants.

I had and ultra sound yesterday on my thyroid. (its a little bumpey)

the doc. said that she's not really alarmed by what she saw. But my

blood work did so high antiobodies to my thyroid. So she said that I

am in the early stages of thyroid diease. I told her that I belived

that I had cause this by having implants. She looked at me real

funny and said that there is no way, and that many womem get this

and it was just going to happen to me anyway. She was not very open.

Very young doctor real cute and real little and she said that even

she has to be on thyroid. (Maybe if she hadn't gotten implants her

thyroid would be normal, yes you heard me right, she had implants)

As to getting together, I would love to met you all. Anywhere would

be fine with me.

My family has a vacation home up in Sun Valley, Idaho and I would be

happy to have everyone there. It will sleep 20 in beds. I know that

lives north of Sun Valley and Patty and I think Daryle are in

Las Vegas, I drive right thru Vegas on my way to Sun Valley and I

could pick you girls up on the way.

The hard part is that we are scattered all over the country. Finding

one place that is convincent for everyone will be hard. Maybe we

could have a West Coast and East coast, and plan for the same time

and the two groups could talk on the phones.

I will try to stay more involved. This group has been a great source

of comfort for me.

I agree with you Cricket. Its like when you get implants (esp saline in my opinion, as the is alot of fungal issues invoved known to trigger hashimotos, while silicone gels seem more joint related like RA) My opinion................

Anyway, when you get implants- its like you have graduated- welcome to the thyroid group!

I am sure you will do fine. just make sure to get your levels assessed, an be on a good t3/t4 mix, lik armour, or synthetic- whatever works the best...

man, I hate the whole thyroid thing. It has been real pain in the neck for me. I had alot of thyroid scares. First it took over 5 docs to fugure out why I was gaining weight, why I was cold, depresses, stiff (hello? who let the idiots out) Then I was found and told I had hashimtos with antibodies iup to 12,000- which Iwas told the higher the more at risk for thyroid cancer you are. Thanks alot... Then they found a goiter (realy not noticable) that was looked at which meant for more tests, as it revealed a large solid nodule. Very large. I had to go to the University of Chicago for a Fine needle aspiration of the nodule (realy fun, needle in the neck) as the regular fine needle test prior (very painful) that took 45 min was undifinitve. So it was found that it wasnt cancer (thus far) I get it tested once a year. Then no hormoes would work, and was found to have thyroid resistance, that the specialist beleives is from the implants and its toxins filling up cells, making them resistant. MAn, this has been tough one for me.If you ever have any ?, Patty knows alot, and I am free. been there, done it all it seems. Love,

Not only the taste, but when my plastic surgeon dumped my chest full of

silicone, my urine had the most awful metallic smell for months! It was

terrible. I could hardly stand to be in the bathroom with myself.
