Guest guest Posted February 26, 2006 Report Share Posted February 26, 2006 Hi guys. My name is Jill and this is my first post. I am 36 YO and had saline implants in April of 2005. In August of 2005 I started having some unusual pain in my knees that was diagnosed as " chondromalacia of the patella " . I was sure the doc was going to tell me it was arthritis. It was treated with a four weeks course of anti-inflammatories and a cortisone shot. I have only had mild knee pain since. On February 5th of this year I woke up with right shoulder pain. By February 10th my entire right arm was numb. After much medical attention ensued (An MRI of my C-spine, an MRI of my brain, 4 doctor visits and a spinal tap) I am unofficially diagnosed as having Multiple Sclerosis. I should find out this coming Friday 3/3 if I do indeed have MS or NOT. There are only two lesions on my brain and the neurologist seemed a little baffled by my MRI. I am starting to feel quite certain whether it be MS or NOT that this was caused by my implants. I coincidently had a clean CAT scan of my brain in 2002, had a baby in 2003 (usually MS flares up post partum) and then had my implants in 2005. What a coincidence that I now have this horrible auto-immune disease?? Has anyone here had a similar experience of having one of your limbs go COMPLETELY dead from implants? What about brain lesions? Thanks..sorry my first post was so long. Jill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
