Guest guest Posted November 23, 2004 Report Share Posted November 23, 2004 Well said Rogene. I am sure that many women are very sick because they listen to their doctors (something we should always be able to do...but unfortunately just can't nowadays) thinking that doctors do know everything. After a while you just have to start thinking that this can't all be a huge coincidence. And...any doctor who cannot even entertain the thought (regardless of if he agrees) that a foreign object in your body for a long period of time can make you extremely sick is definitely close-minded. I am just extremely skeptical about anybody who jumps on board with a concept and will not even listen to anything to the contrary. Medicine and technology are changing in so many ways everyday that for a professional to disregard any other possibility than what he believes is true at this very moment...he is either ignorant or hiding something. Just think what would happen to today's generation and future generations if back in the day nobody went against the idea that smoking cigarettes was safe. If not for the research and the people who believed...we would probably all smoke and never know the difference. Decades ago...doctors were telling their patients that smoking is safe. Today...that concept is absurd to any doctor. I hope there are enough people out there doing the research today to save women from implants in the future. Hopefully...it will not take another fifty years for the doctors of today to have to eat their words..."implants are safe...now get yourself to a psychologist..."

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2004 Report Share Posted November 24, 2004 Molly, I've been active in implant support for about eleven years . . . Lynda has been around even longer. This is the best group I've ever seen when it comes to women caring and sharing. We're definitely not mainstream . . . but then, you've seen where most women are getting with mainstream. . . We don't totally forsake doctors . . . But we know they're not Gods and we can think for ourselves! We are getting well through God's Divine Grace! You can too! Hugs and prayers, Rogene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
