my story!

[Guest guest]

hello there! i seem to be having trouble posting for some reason? so this may

be my second post. i'm sorry! i want to tell my full story to everyone. 6

years ago i got saline breast implants. 5 or 6 weeks after the surgery i got ill

- nausea, nerve/joint/muscle pain, twitching, trouble swallowing, etc. i went

from doctor to doctor in my city (because my family doctor thought it was all in

my head). well so did all the other doctors i saw. not one took me seriously. 6

months of going to doctor to doctor with no success my family doctor admitted me

to the mental health unit in the hospital. i was in there for one month where

they put me on effexor. years went by with me trying to convince my family and

husband that i'm sick and it could be from the implants. with no success. well

last november i had an eposode where my hands and feet went freezing cold, i

couldn't breathe, and my heart was racing. i was so scared and my family thought

it was all in my head. i was again admitted to the mental health unit and placed

on effexor again. 3 weeks ago it happened again but much more severe - hands and

feet went freezing cold, couldn't breathe, heart was going crazy fast. i went to

a walk in clinic and the doctor there told me to go to the hospital. i went to

the hospital and the admitted me to the cardiac unit and relleased me the next

day saying that i have tacycardia. since then my heart rate has not gone below

100 and jumps to 160 and i have stabbing pains where my heart is and major

trouble breathing, twitching, and burning acidy feeling in my throat all the

time. i was doing some research and came across Dysautonomia - a dysfunction of

the autonomic nervous system and i thought this sounds kinds what i have and i

also found some where on the internet that dysautonomia has been known to occur

after breast impant surgery. i'm really scared and alone at the moment. i feel

like i'm going to have to die with these implants in. i have no one to support

me at all. i'm at a utter total loss and am very tired.
