Guest guest Posted February 21, 2002 Report Share Posted February 21, 2002 Thanks for inviting me...here I am. for everyone here's a brief history: I'm...41...still hurts to say it out loud LOL! I've had saline implants for 20 years and am scheduled for explant on March 20th...only 4 weeks...I'm on a countdown! I have no idea what type they are, my original ps sent my operative report wich says nothing about the maker and when I called back he brushed me off and told me only that my " new " ps would know. All it said was VSOS 215(200) I assume that is the size. I've been fairly trouble free until this past year. And until I began researching, had no idea that the infections I keep getting could indeed be caused by my implants...one of which I think may be leaking, which is why I started researching in the first place. This past year alone I've suffered from 5 yeast infections, 1 lung infection and several sinus infections, all of which my dr can find no " cause " . I've never ever had such problems. Then also I noticed my hair thinning, and a toenail fungal thing and dry eyes and nose and skin and I could go on and on...I was beginning to think I was a hypocondriac (no doubt I spelled that one wrong) but, come to find I'm not alone in this and these are true symptoms. whew! what a relief. Anyhow, I'm a mother of two daughters, grandma of two sweet 3 year old boys and an artist...bronze sculpture. So that about somes me up...I look forward to getting to know everyone.
