I had a breast augmentation a little over 10 years ago. The implants are saline. I have heard of numerous women having unexplained health problems with saline implants. None of them had ruptured implants. Some of the health problems they had include chronic fatigue, chronic pain, brain fog, and a general overall feeling of malaise, to name a few.
