Guest guest Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 I would avoid the Mayo clinic as they do not believe breast implants cause problems. They get a lot of funding from Dow.

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Hey Carey, I didn't see much improvement in the first year and a half. I continued to detox and do all the right things for 18 months with nary a sign of relief. I was getting desperate, but my mantra was " NO DRUGS! NO DRUGS! " There were days when I felt even worse than when I had implants, and in fact, I had a few new symptoms within about 6 weeks post explant. But gradually, (and I mean very, very gradually) things started to get better. I felt very poisoned still about a year and a half after explant, even though I had done many kinds of detox. But then it all started to get better, and by 4 years post explant I was feeling almost fully back to normal. I don't want to say that you will have a recovery like mine, but I do want to stress that the healing process is very long and drawn out, and you would be better off relaxing and not expecting big things to happen. Your body may go through alot of ups and downs before it levels off. I would suggest that you wait a good year to expect a large amount of symptom relief. There are some women who seek the use of drugs for their pain and other debilitating issues. I understand that and don't fault them for getting the help they need. I did not have the horrible pain that some women have and so I was better able to stick to my " NO DRUGS " rule. Drugs are toxic to the body and sometimes can prevent long term healing for those who seek a natural cure. I wanted to stay devoted to a natural healing path that relied on non-toxic therapies, and I am glad I stuck it out. You may need to " hunker down " and work your way through this...just know that we are here for you, having been down this road before. You can get better..just be patient and keep treating your body well!

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Hi Carey,I researched the whole Mayo thing too and found that explanted women who went there were basically told what they already knew going in...that they had auto-immune-like issues. As far as treatment, the Mayo didn't offer anything but liver-clogging drugs that relieve some symptoms temporarily. I'm not sure how far Indiana is from Chicago but I went to Mercola's Optimal Wellness Center www.mercola.com If you do an advanced search on perfecthealth68 as author you can see more about my experience. The reason I went was because former member Palanca went there and recovered. Mercola seems to know a lot about the fungal/metal/implant connection. He no longer sees patients but has a staff that does. I do know that the protocol has changed slightly from when went. It is expensive, so you might want to see what and I got from it first before you decide. You can always take what you learn on this forum from searching the archives to a local ND (if you can find a good one). I'm a year and half post explant but am dealing w/ mercury issues so it's taking me a little longer than I expected. I switched from Mercola to a local doc because it was difficult traveling 5 hours each way. As far as the prescriptions you're taking that aren't working...maybe you could try some forms of detox mentioned in the files and the archives. I'm not saying I'm against prescriptions as I'm on two (was just given one today for parasites), but for the most part it seems that the women who have fully recovered, did so through natural detox, a few key supplements and diet. Most of us have found help through naturopathic/alternative doctors rather than M.D.s because they seem to understand toxicity issues better. Hang in there...you'll find your answers.
