Re: Hepatitis C and silicone implants?

[Guest guest]

I'm guessing that Hep C must show a lot of the same

symptoms as silicone-induced disease or that it makes one more vulvernable to silicone-induced disease,

but I don't believe they are directly related. . .I think is

absolutely correct about the sharing of needles, but maybe

sex plays a bigger part, as I was never questioned about

needles or drugs.

I say this because Hepatitis (all forms of it) was eliminated

by testing, as a cause of my problems when presented.

When I questioned the physician--as I thought silicone caused

it--I was told that it was part of the differential diagnosis.

There is probably a lot of implant info among celebrities that

would be beneficial to us (publicly and personally) but unless something is visually obvious to the public, most celebrity

agents do not advise revelation as they are afraid it will

hurt careers. If you follow some of the older celebrities you

can pretty well guess who is having or has had a bout with a level of siliconosis.

If she has HEP C most likely it is unrelated to her implants at all. Hep C

is a blood borne disease spread by sharing needles and some times by sex. I

must say though it is not always spread so easily by sex, my sister was

married to a man with Hep C(she did not know he has been a former iv drug

user) anyhow she has been tested several times and never got it, so I think

it would be more easy to catch if there is a sharing of needles, or even

razors, toothrbrushes etc.

A silicone sister that recently stayed with me said she had contracted Hepatitis somehow, and she thinks it was from something she ate at a salad bar. She was severely affected by it.

Didn't Naomi Judd also have Hepatitis and that is what caused her to stop touring? I am quite certain she has implants too.

I don't know what connection there is, if any, but there is no doubt that it affects silicone sisters in a terrible way.

Yes Bonnie they checked me for HEP C too in the beginning of my illness I believe that it is standard procedure to rule out the biggies, I was also tested for HIV as well.

Sex can play a part but as I said unless you have anal sex and have tears or direct blood contact I don't think it is as easy to catch that way as say sharing needles because if it was my sister would have it and she doesn't.

Hepatitis C is blood borne so it is unlikely she got it that way. Hep B and A however can be contracted by food and yes, Naomi Judd does indeed have it!

Thanks for your reponses to my original posting. Here's my

thinking though. Silicone suppresses the immune system - and

although others have posted the notion that Hep. C is not easy to

contract, I believe otherwise. From my understanding Hepatitis

is very communicable (FAR more communicable than AIDS).

So, if your immune system is suppressed its easy to end up with

icky things you might not otherwise contract - so is their a direct

link between Hep. C and silicone implants? Maybe not directly,

but I have a suspicion there is an indirect link.
