Guest guest Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 Crap, started typing and then I think it got sent too soon.Dr. na Hansen - OHSU Portland, OREGONhttp://www.ohsu.edu/xd/health/services/providers/hansenju.cfmShe is very busy as OHSU is a teaching facility and she does clinics, etc. Her scheduler is Younhee (UNEE) and she is amazing. If you call their general number see if you can talk with .I recommended her to a woman who has had her implants for 30 years and she is flying in from Michigan the end of April..will have her consult/pre-opt one day and the surgery 2 days later. I suggested she stay at the Marriott Residence Inn - North Harbor...but there is also a Residence Inn at Lloyd Center where I believe you can get vanned back and forth to OHSU and they give a good discount for surgery patients.Dr. Hansen is VERY GOOD AT HER JOB. She is new to the idea of women who want explants and do NOT want new implants put back in. She has a wonderful spirit and soul. Let them know you want a capsulectomy for pricing purposes. That will take the capsule out. I also suggest you talk with Dr. Blais if you want your implants/capsules looked at and a report done. To send them and get the letter/report I needed for insurance, it was $500. IT really was the best money I've spent.Barbara, Winston & Yogi"The greatness of a nation can be judged by the way its animals are treated" GandhiPeace & Kindness in 2011In loving memory of TIRAWA From: Lengyel <tracylengyel@...>Subject: RE: i am goin to get implants Date: Monday, March 21, 2011, 2:15 PM , I wish I had the opportunity to really think about the consequences of implants before I got them and they destroyed my body, mind and soul. The truth is that I wanted the benefits of them so badly that I wouldn't have allowed myself to think to deeply about it or even do research. You have the benefit of us trying to protect you, and that is why you were led here. I have a friend with them that didn't know I had them and was telling me how confused she feels, and how bad her back hurts, when I told her about me and that it is because she is poisoned she got defensive and we haven't been able to remain friends. She called me recently and I was happy but when I updated her on my quest for explantation, she got off the phone quick. I get sad she is where I was not accepting they are causing her problems. She has been using a ton of prescription drugs, go figure, that's how died, and her boyfriend told media the problems started after her augmentation. Poor woman was trying to find some way to feel better, but she refused to think too much about her implants causing the problems and tried to go alternative routes to feel better, and basically killed herself with those pills. It is all so so sad. I admit I was tired a lot before implants.. but that was it. Now I look like I've aged 10 yrs in a few, my skin coloring is yellowish at times, my eyes are always red with dark circles, my hair has bald spots and I have a receding hairline already. (I'm 40) My confusion is scary to live with, I isolate myself because I sound retarded when I talk. I can't retain any information, and forget what I'm talking about while I'm talking. I always took care of myself well, and now I go around in a sick fog dirty. I spend a lot of time sleeping. I had no breathing problems before, now I can't walk without struggling to breathe. AND... I have gained weight I am unable to get off because I am too sick to do anything about it. I used to be able to do low carb and lose but now I get sick on low carb. My labs are off, my estrogen was through the roof high when at my age it is usually low. The guilt of what I have done to myself and family is too much to bear. I resent my implants and husband for pushing the issue. My daughter is suffering because I am not acting well and alive for her, I go into panic attacks saying I'm dying. It's BAD BAD BAD. And, insurance will cover my explantation at 50% but we don't have the up front 10K we'd need for Kolb after going to consults with other rude, arrogant, evil plastic surgeons. Just wait, you are their best friend until you have problems with what they've done.

I was 28 when I got mine and consider myself an intelligent woman. I'd heard women have 'negative reactions' to implants but that's all I knew and I thought, "oh it'll never happen to me"...well a year into it my health went downhill and I thought it was either a-getting close to 30 sucked or b-my job was getting harder on me physically...it was neither. I became so ill I lost my career, the 1st year of my new marriage and certain friends who showed their true colors in a time of need (one I nevr thought I'd ever experience). Not to mention my sanity for a while....I went from a woman who felt like I could do anything to a dependent sick one who didn't even recognize herself in the mirror. I was a Small A cup and wanted just a nice C....I always wore padding and thought this was my answer...now I have NO feeling in my nipples, shooting pains sometimes, scars and my A cup back. Implants damage the flow of your body. They disrupt your lymphatic system. NO plastic surgeon will tell you that, ever. They create dis-ease in your once perfect body that God created to work perfectly if you treat it right. I don't mean to sound preach-y but I'm just sharing what my heart feels. I hope you can take to heart our warnings and be open to what we say. Its all in the name of concern for you and your sweet babies. Its not worth the risk.
