Hi There, can I ask if you have experienced any other health issues, such as hair loss,aching joints or stiffness in joints first thing in the morning or when being sat in the same position for a period of time? My right silicone implant has ruptured and silicone has leaked into my glands, this happened around 2 years ago, so the silicone is in my body and could be everywhere by now, my main concern is my hair loss which has become more apparent in the last 3 months, I have a replacement booked on 21st January 2012, but I am currently researching into the damage and long term health affects concerned with silicone loose in the body and in the lymph nodes? No-one will tell me what the symptoms or affects of having silicone in the lymph nodes they just say they need to be removed?? I am so scared that this is whats causing the joint pain and hair loss? Many thanks.
Hi, I had silicone implants put in in Jan 1999, they became hard about 5 years after, but 2 years ago I had a gurgling sensation which I could hear and feel and my right nipple seemed to be off centre, I was told by a surgeon then that i should think about having them replaced, the gurgling stopped and I left it until now! I have had some health problems over the last year, such as aching joints, pains in my neck, knees, groin and under my arms, also the main concern is that my hair is falling out, I had a scan and they confirmed that my right implant has ruptured and the silicone has leaked into my glands, I have to have them replaced in January but I am going to have Saline NOT Silicone I don't believe that its safe at all and if I knew what would happen I would never have started this??
