I had my implants for 2 and a half years, right away I began feeling sick, flu like symptoms, chills nausea, my hair started falling out, my kidneys ached, My immune system just wasn't working. My body wanted these plastic toxic bags OUT!!!!

I went on line and found a support group that there were over a thousand women with breast implants and all the same symptoms. I did a ton of research and realized that my body was just attacking this foreign object. So I got them out and now 5 years later I am finally normal.

It was awful being sick for that long. I have since worked with M.T.V and was a part of a documentary about young people who get plastic surgery. I have spoken at many high schools.

I hope that everyone gets educated on the effects of plastic in the human body, it is made up of 52 chemicals one being benzine a known carcinogen. I plead any one who is thinking of breast implants to research first. Thanks fro reading! d

Thanks for sharing your experience with thousands of women considering breast augmentation. I got implants 14 years ago and, according to my experience, is not worth. I am on the road to explantation. Best of luck and thanks again for your words.

Your words are needed, as it is a foreign object being implanted. Regardless saline or silicone. More people should be informed of the risks to make an educated decision and not just think of the end result.
