Hi Nik,

Apparently my previous message offended you. And apparently there has been a misunderstanding. So, risking the chance of offending you again, I will reiterate.

In my previous message I stated, "There is no one here that would impose themselves on another human being by telling them what or what not to do with their body. Regarding the implant issue, that has to be an individual choice."

Then you said, "If it upsets you that I am keeping my implants, I'm sorry."

In my previous message, I stated "If you need support, then we're here for you."

Then you said, "I'ld still like to stay with the group and keep updated. I hope you can handle that, and understand."

Yet, in my previous message, I stated, "I wouldn't want my worst enemy to have to live in my world. And I am truly happy for you, that your health has not been effected by these devices."

You see Nik, my language is pretty basic and simple and I would never deliberately offend another living soul. But sometimes when a person puts their words in writing (depending on how the other person perceives it), can be offensive.

We are all here to help, love, encourage and support each other. And again I will state - If this support group is what you need, then we are here for you. Please don't let your feelings get hurt by the likes of me! We all have our own Cross to bear in this life, but if you should discover your implants are the primary cause of debilitating health, don't beat yourself up over it, 'cause we've all been there.

Hugs............

So I'll try not to be angry in my reply to you.I go to a hair loss forum, one of the women there left a link to this group. I thought I'd check it out to see if any of the things going on with me are implanted related. For the most part I was worried about my hair. Since you can't read the information without joining here I am. I decided to stay so I can keep updated. I don't feel that should be a problem. If it upsets you that I am keeping my implants, I'm sorry.My hair loss is cut in half, thanks to going to a derm that is a hair loss expert. I did this to myself, and a diet change and iron and I'm getting better.I also looked into my mild joint pain recently. It seems all my pain does come from injuries due to dancing for 13 years. Over the years I broke my arm, elbow, and blew out both my knees. In the next 10 years, I will have to have surgery on my knees. I suppose when I was 25 and the doctor told me to quit dancing, as I sat there with my knees swollen like a grapefruit. I should of listened, instead I got on stage the next night with my knee wrapped and a lot of ice during my break. Like I said, I'd still like to stay with the group and keep updated. I hope you can handle that, and understand. Take care Nik Dr Kolb, Can you tell me why a PS would not do the closed saline > system? Would my PS tell me what he did?
