JULIE/ROGENE: Sicker with salines

[Guest guest]

I agree with you about the salines. For me, I am at a loss. My

health regime prior to implantation was not as good as 's, but

I was pretty healthy, ate Ok, etc, very energetic. I sailed through

2 c-sections with very little setbback, but I started reacting to

the implants on day 4.

I know two other patients like me, one who started a reaction the

next day and other girl a month later. The girl who had the

reaction the next day was an avid weightlifter, ate well, etc. So I

am still clueless about this mess. I can only figure some women can

not handle them at all. Or perhaps we are allergic to the heavy

metals in them.

I try not to dwell on this too much, but I was at the library with

my girls this week, and my leg and foot went numb and there I am

flopping it all over the place, trying not to be conspicious,lol.

What's so ironic is all I ever wanted was to look ok in a swimsuit

and not be embarrassed when I took them swimming. Now I'm afraid to

take them swimming without another adult because of my darned leg.

I am still hopeful though of recovery, I kind of see the glass as

half full instead of half empty, so I'll always be hopeful of

recovery. It could be worse, right? I could be dead, and I really

thought I wasn't going to make it, heck, I know I was dying, I am

sure about that.

love,
