Re: anyone with enlarged lymph nodes w/ saline implants?cancer scare??

a,The good news is that your rash got better with antibiotics . . . the bad news is that it will likely get worse because of the antibiotics.Antibiotics kill off the friendly flora of your body, along with bacteria. . . When your body starts to recover the unfriendly (fungal) flora will rebound quicker, leaving you with a nasty fungal problem. It takes a lot of work to recolonize those friendly organisms. . . As well as a healthy diet = NO sugar!The "fix" for that is to start taking probiotics now and continue indefinitely. . . examples are yogurt, Kefir, sauerkraut and supplements like Garden of Life Primal Defense, Acidopholis and Probiotics.

Hi a,

Welcome to the group. I can relate to the fear of what you're going

through. One of my earliest symtpoms (besides digestive issues)

we're swollen lymph nodes. I woke up one morning with a huge node

under my jaw the size of a large walnut. I immediately went to the

doctor and he sent me in for an MRI, thinking that I had Hodgkin's.

I asked him if it could be my implants and he laughed.

The lymph node went down within a week and I didn't have any more

symptoms til a year later and by the time I went in for explant, the

doctor had to surgically remove 2 lymph nodes from my arm pits since

they were so swollen. She did a biopsy on them and all that turned

up was benign inflamed tissue. I wouldn't be surprised if your lymph

nodes are swollen from inflammation rather than cancer, especially

given that you have had joint pain (also inflammation).

I'm not sure about the breast cysts but I know that several of us

have had ovarian cysts due to endocrine imbalances. Your breast

cysts could be a result of that as well. I know my mom has

fibrocystic breasts...they have always been benign for her.

You're wise to get your implants removed so you can clear up this

inflammation and let your body heal. I went to Dr. Kolb in

Atlanta www.plastikos.com

Hang in there and let us know the results. If you have any more

questions, just ask.

Love, PH
