Re: Its been two years since explant

Great success story julie. I am so very happy for you. You are an

inspiration for others. Thanks for sharing every bit of info you have

obtained. I started on a gluten free diet yesterday. OOPs -cheated

today accidentally. Before I realized it, I hadtaken a few bites of a

hamburger from steak and shake and forgotten to take it out of the

bun. Not nearly so good without the bun!! But I am determined to

give it a try. I also made an appt with a doc that deals with

perimenopausal women and does saliva testing. I am hoping she will

order all the sex hormones, cortisol and thyroid. I need to know

where I am at with some of these things. Keep posting updates on how

you do with the gluten free diet!

Blessings, kathy

breast implants as of 09 12 04. I just wanted to share with you the

different changes I have went through. I am a lot better, even more

so, than last year. No more joint pain in ,my hands, fingers or feet,

or muscle twitches, or daily headaches, fogginess, or confusion, no

more hair loss, constipation, dizziness, fatigue or anxiety, or breast

pain, or sleepless nights, or viral infections, and yeast issues. No

more sore and stiff muscles, or tingly numb hands and feet, (one foot

still has a little numbness but has stayed the same,) no more shocks

through my body, no more loss of eyesight, no more Candida

infections, or out of control hormones issues, no more crying because

I thought I was dying. No more Rheumatoid arthritis, no more MS like

symptoms. Lower thyroid antibodies, no more + ana, no more +

rheumatoid factor, no more pleading with Doctors to help me.

eat so good now and take care of myself right.

was very hard to go through. It was a very long year that year. I was

so sick ,I could barely function, and new, more debilitating symptoms

tend to, that was two years old! He needed me! And a husband that

needed a wife back. A house that was being built, and a job that I

didn't want to lose. It was such a busy time, and so hard to make that

final and quite honestly costly decision, that to me at the time was a

gamble. But it had to be made, and was deciding to get those suckers

out-was the most important decision, and the best one I have ever made

in my whole life. Even after explant, It takes time, and a change in

lifestyle, diet and nutrition, like in my case, but had paid off.

Immensely!

good doctor that properly removes them. Follow a great healthy diet

kathy, that sounds so cool about the doc you are going to see. Let me know what happens. I know you have some hormonal issues, I bet on it! if you are like most women living in the US, you will at at least need progesterone. Anyway, please keep me updated! Thank you for your sweetness! love

I am so happy for you!!!!

I am a little over a year post explant - I am only hoping that I can have as good of results as you when I get to two years!! I am a little jealous, though.... I really want another baby but right now I don't think it can happen. My little window of "fertility" is getting smaller as I am getting older. I am so happy you have gotten over this mess and can move on. You are an inspiration for sure and I am so glad you are not leaving us anytime soon. I love to hear from you and your loving posts!

Shari, you are a sweet gal. At one year, I had improvements, but no where close to today. Hope that helps al little..How long did you have them again? It was about last year too, that I got into balancing my hormones (thyroid and progesterone to help with the heightened levels of cortisol) and until recently when I found I had a gltuen intolerance, dealing with food allergies-that I have gotten even more better. I think for some, it is multi step process . You start on one thing, and then go on to the next. And also it takes time to get all that crap out. hang in there, I know it is so tough and times, disheartening .You got us girl.

I had mine in for 7 years almost to the date... My explant was 2 days over the same date as my implant - D-day as I like to call it. My doctor, Dr. Vasey, says that it may take a while as mine were in a while plus they were textured which he believes may have lead to more shell shedding over the 7 years. It just takes some time. thanks for the encouragement!

,

I can recall you coming on this group very ill and of course worried

that you would never have another child so I am very happy to hear

that your at a point where that is a possibility for you. YIPPY.

Despite any of our disagreements mostly related to issues with ps's

in the end we are still silcone sisters and always will be. I am glad

that you are finally where you need and long to be.

good luck on that baby

This is an incredible testimony of healing , and one that all medical professionals should be looking at. How they can continue to say that implants don't cause illness is beyond me! You are proof...we are all proof! But you have a great case that is in black and white in lab tests! You stand up and shout it girl!

And may God bless you as you imagine your wildest dreams coming true!

Hugs,

Patty, thank you so much!

I have a question, I cant find my original lab work- can I call my health insurance company, and see if they have copies? I want to get these very improtant copies back to me, for my proof. I think I may have given them to docs, without getting my copy back ,as I showed them to so many .Either that, or I filed them when we moved and cannot find them at all.

What do you think? Love julie

My Dear :

Thank you for such a heart warming story, you are an inspiration for us all. My wish is that I too will get well.

Tomorrow, I get my teeth cleaned and this is a frightening experience for me. I have MVP, this means that today I must start taking a massive dose of Amoxicillin (antibiotic). Everytime that I have any surgical procedures like this it causes a severe flare.

dear I received a virus in one of your e-mails. I know that you did not send it; however, it must have been attached to one of the e-mails that you received. The title was Breast Implants Belong in a Quackery Museum. The date was 07/09/04, time 4:59PM. I had a virus from our darling sick Sue as well, at about the same time!

I wish that the people who do this were not such cowards...they seem to want us to all go away....we never will.

Bless your heart and stay well...love...Lea

Great news , How encouraging. I'm at 13 months and have gone through a flare. The more I exercise and eat right I can eliminate most of the symptoms quickly, but it is a life style change and a daily routine for me. It's been a slow process to get chemical free and to stick to my routines (I still have trouble), but I'm a little more disciplined every day. Because I see it really makes a difference. I also realize that I must make time for my health. I can't over tax myself with a job, my first priority is my health routine. Finding ways to encorporate more natural living into my life. Wouldn't you say. Lea your message was very kind too. God Bless you both and all here at SS. I've been noticing a lot of strange mail coming through our website; just don't open it up. Like a lady who sent me an instant message, saying her name was Rhonda. Anyone else get that? Love to all,

Smile it keeps getting better! Lea <devans@...> wrote:

Lea, how sweet your post was! thank you kindly. I will pray for you tomorrow in your teeth cleaning chair! That God will protect you from any harm! I am sure you wil do great, and lets hope that flare does revisit this time.

ALso, the article I sent was from Dr Mercolas' site! How could that have happened, he hates implants! I am so sorry! Could someone attach to my messages? Love

It is your only chance. even if you don't think , you will get well.....You wont get better with a foreign object in your body, that is for sure! I have never regretted it for a second.. Go to a good doctor that properly removes them. Follow a great healthy diet and take good cleansing supplements. Pray and God will answer. We have become good friends in all of this, and I am glad I had to find Him once again. Love you all, you have been great support! > Here's To living! > > >
