Guest guest Posted June 24, 2002 Report Share Posted June 24, 2002 This is a letter I posted on another prom implant site. Let me know ladies what you think of it, I was trying hard to be inteligent and not hateful or angry. Just trying to make a point hope that it is ok Dear Nikki I am moderator of a closed forum that is a support site for women who have become ill from saline/silicone implants. I was reading a thread on your site where you stated that implants do not cause autoimmune or connective tissue disorders. While this may be what the ASPRS and other medical organizations would like for the public to believe, the truth is these studies are far too small and far too short to be completely accurate with their findings. Further more these studies were not looking for atypical disease, only for disease that fits into specific categories. I have proof that implants can cause autoimmune disease and symptoms of different diseases and I want to inform you that it is incorrect to make these claims to women seeking facts about implants. Further more it can and does make women who have been through this horrible experience feel like what they have been through is meaningless. I was explanted afer having implants for 18 months by a wonderful PS in ohio, Dr Lu-Feng, she informed me that my symptoms were very very classic of implant illness and that she deals with women with this illness each and everyday in her clinic. She is not the only one and there are more and more women everyday that are ill due to implants. Trust me I am not here to cause any kind of fighting or arguing, I just want the truth to be told to the women who are seeking implants. Personally I am happy for all of you that have implants and are healthy and my wish is for you all to remain healthy and happy. I have been to hell and back and my case is really really interesting and I would be so happy to share it all with any of you that are interested, including photos of my breasts, pre and post explant. I am not anti implant, I am just pro health and pro fact. I don't want to anger anyone, just want girls investigating implants to realize that the Dr's don't know everything and that somethings we are being told are not 100% true. There are women who do get ill from implants. I was one of them. I have lab work that proves what my implants did to me. Why would I lie? I have nothing to gain believe me. I hope that you will inform ladies investigating implants that there are women out there who do get ill from implants, that it can take only a few months and in others it can take years, but that it can and does happen. If you would like to read my story or see my photos or anything else i would be happy to speak with you. take care , Cj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
