a, good luck, honey. You sound just like the rest of us, it is so frustrating when we get sick, and our family seems to never understand.

We will all help you to get through all this, and we will give you plenty of love and support...so sorry that you are sick.

Stay close to us...love you...Lea

Hi Krista,I read your story and was so amazed at how similar mystory is to yours. I, too, thought it could neverhappen to me!!Your description of feeling like you were lookingthrough a dirty window (when you had brain fog) is aperfect description. It is a horrible feeling. I have to be so careful not to be too hard on myselffor having gotten myself into such a big mess! I feelguilty because I am not the wife or mother I used tobe. I feel like my husband has to do everything! Iknow my entire family is sick of me being sick andthey just want the old me back. Now I feel guiltybecause of the expense we will have to go to in orderto get these removed when there are plenty of otherareas in our life where the money could be used. Sometimes I have panic attacks because I want to getthese toxic sacks out NOW!!! I have to take deepbreaths and do alot of 'self talking' to stay calm andpositive.I'm in the process of doing my research on physiciansso I can make the best choice for me. I'm choosing to look to the future and consideringthis a painful lesson in my life that I might turninto a positive thing by focusing on getting well andfeeling proud of myself that I am finally trustingmyself instead of listening to so many physicians saythe illness is not related to the implants. I know Ican also help other women like so many of you havehelped people like me. Thank you!

Honey, sometimes tears are good. I know that most of the women in this group have cried an Ocean of tears. I still cry, and gets annoyed with me, but he understands that being sick can cause major frustration for us. We are all sick of being sick, but we must move forward, because things will get better.

In the beginning, I too took a lot of abuse from many doctors. This was good for me because it made me angry. That is when I started to do research on these deadly devices. I still continue to educate every new doctor I meet on the dangers of breast implants.

Stay close, and we will all help you...love you......Lea
