Cheryl ~

Hello stranger ! I am glad you stopped in to

say hello, and tell your predicament so that new

gals can see your situation.

I am so sorry you are still trying to find a competent

surgeon to heal you. I wish there was one willing to fly to people that couldnt travel.

I have forgotten, where do you live ? ? Have you tried a general surgeon ? or thoracic surgeon ?

Bless your heart, You are in my prayers ~

Hi Cheryl,

Thanks for popping in. It makes me feel like I am not alone. I also

thought I was getting enbloc but my doctor collapsed my silicone

implants during surgery to remove them. I am also full of candida four

years later. I do feel better, though, and I am finally doing the

candida cleanse the right way. Good luck to you.

Cheryl,

Wow, this is not good girlfriend....can your husband take some time

off so you can get this explant done? You need to take care of this

ASAP. Two years is a dangerous length of time to be walking around

this way. How do you feel?

This is exactly why we need women to understand the importance of

going to good plastic surgeons. And we are lucky that these brave

plastic surgeons are out there for us. Can you imagine the day when

these professionals that we depend on are no longer practicing? We

would have to start all over with educating the doctors about a

proper explant! (Doesn't that sound like fun? Like they will listen

to us.)

Don't delay getting that explant. Sell your stuff, get the money

together and get some help from family members or friends, whoever

they are. You need to be there for your kids. Don't take anything

regarding your health for granted. Things can change so quickly. Get

better NOW Cheryl!

Dede,

Can you pull those specific sentences out of the articles and post them

for us to highlight them?

Thanks!
