Re: New To Support Group Sick From Saline Implants

[Guest guest]

,

I think many of the doctors have been misled into believing that implants can't

cause the debilitating problems that we've experienced. They seem to have

neglected to do any deeper research individually, and really, there is no

incentive to do it when the manufacturer's provide their own " research " for all

to see and the consensus is that implants are safe. It really takes special

doctors to be astute enough to start putting two and two together. So, I hope

that isn't too hard to swallow...basically I am saying that your hundreds of

docs have been mediocre docs. America is full of them. In fact, going to

doctors can be dangerous to your health! That has been shown through

statistics!

Sad, but true.

yrs but only debilitated for 2 1/2 months..mine being in 4 years total. Just me

personally, I think all your damage can be reversed with proper detox. The body

is amazing and when the 'intruders' are out it will go back to working properly

as God intended it to. That's my belief My holistic doc knows so much about

mold she was telling me how they are linking many cancers to mold exposure. So

many of my symptoms lessened once I was taking detox supplements and I have my

implants in still. But I know I won't feel normal or be in full working order

til they're out. Stay strong sister!

for the last 4 years. I have 58 symptoms that I have written down. My body is

with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, and Central Sensitization Syndrome.

By the grace of the good Lord I was bedridden on Monday & Tuesday and the good

Lord just happend to help me put the TV channel on MTV, I saw a program on

Saline Breast Implants making someone sick like me. I had checked into the

possibility several years ago on the FDA website and checked with my Plastic

Surgeon and the information that I received was that they were safe and could

not be causing my health problems. This show described so many of the problems I

was going through that it made me look further into this subject and now I

believe this is the cause of what may be killing me. I'm in desperate need of

information at this point. I want these things out of my body now and I need to

know who is the best surgeon for this procedure. I'm willing to travel wherever

I need to go to make sure I have the best results. My health is all that matters

at this point. I live in Alabama. Does anyone know if you ever recover after

having them in for so long? I'm so scared now that I know this is what's going

on in my body.

I agree ...I've written personal letters to my doctors to update them on

my progress of healing. I just need to know that I've spoken up and said my

peace whether or not they read the letters or choose to believe what I have to

say. As far as I'm concerned, they've been " educated " by my experience however

they want to incorporate it...or NOT. It's up to them. Most of the time, I

think the letter just goes into my medical file...but that's oK. At least my

progress is documented correctly then!!!! Sometimes those medical records hold

surprises in the form of a biased dr opinion, and they can be quite damaging. I

like having my side of the story in my own words in there.

Good for you. I hope, truly hope, it makes a positive impact.

Good for you for trying.

Hugs of support,

doctors and specialists I saw. I have all my before bloodwork and am definitely

going to take after bloodwork. Any thing significant should be education to help

others. If I could help even one other sufferer I'd be happy, more, even better

Good for you, Patty.

Big, big hugs of support,
