women responding but don't remember and didn't save it, I am scared to death so

I put it out of my mind for a while. I thought I mustered up the strength and

figured out financially how to explant...but then got scared and tried to ignore

it AGAIN.. I am mainly so scared because I am so sick I am afraid I won't make

it through surgery and recovery so chose I guess to let these toxins kill me

slowly.

I was on Prednisone, and they had me on a nebulizer for a few years. It took

many years to get to where I am today, and I am in remission. We keep the

nebulizer just in case, and my doctors make sure that I have Ventolin and

Pulmocort...just in case.

still a struggle for me; however, if I get plenty of love and no stress, my

quality of life is close to normal. I do have Lupus, and my immune system is

compromised, and the only way for me to get through this is with antibiotics,

and probiotics. Many women do not believe in this treatment; however, it has

worked for me. I have constant infections, and that is probably why the

antibiotics make me better.

implants for sure!! I've had this tighness in my chest before when I had the

implants but it went away and always came back except this time it's here or

good. The meds help but I'm still having trouble. After 2 1/2 weeks of being on

the meds, I went back to the asthma specialist. Ofcourse he put me on more

steroids and gave me a breathing treatment. My father and aunt both have asthma

but even they are like, " you should be feeling better by now. " Well, I'm

not...the shortness of breath and chest tightness are are super bad in the

morning. I had to use my inhaler 3 times this morning before it relieved

anything and still my chest was tight. I was reading about connective tissue

disorder and it said as the disease progressed it caused pulmonary hypertension.

I knew it!! I have a auto-immune disease which has now caused me to have further

complications. I'm trying to see a rheumotolog i st but my new (idiot) physician

is laughing at me so I have to see a different doc to refer me. I need to be

diagnosed so my family understands that I'm not getting better soon and my

husband needs to know that, yes, I got sick from my implants. It's ridiculous!!

I've been sick for 2 1/2 years and he still thinks it's not my implants causing

it!! GRRR!! I'm sooo sick of this!!

,

Dr. Hiatt got my insurance to pay by writing a letter to the company and stating

that I had Baker IV contractures (which I did...they were pretty firm) and he

did not mention the fact that they were saline.

The insurance was approved based primarily on the Baker IV contractures, I

believe.

I know Dr. Kolb is also able to get insurance approval for explant. It really

lies in the ability of the doctor to use the appropriate wording in his letter.

Dr. Hiatt was definitely on my side and did his best to take care of me. I

surely am praying that you have the same experience with him!
