I Had an Amazing Experience

WORTH IT
He is a skilled surgeon, He has wonderful bedside manor. He did Breast Explant. I have been ill for many years and have many of the BII symptoms. I explanted 12 days ago and I already feel some better. He does enbloc which is very important in explant to be sure you don't get any of the toxins inside your chest wall.

Hi there, when you say Ill for many years could you please explain your symptoms, I too have been very poorly for many years & considering an explant (& capsule removal) with an uplift, but so scared to go through the opp when feeling so ill. Have your symptoms started to improve already? Did you have an uplift too?

Yes I had a very hard time breathing and I would choke and cough when I took a deep breath, That is gone! I was always stopped up and had sinus headaches 2-5 times a week and none since explant 14 days ago. Brain fog was terrible and it's better, My hair was falling out by the handfulls, I have Hashimoto's, Kidney disease, Chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, High liver enzymes, My list just goes on and on. There are some good face book explant pages if you would like you can ask to be added. 1) Breast Implant Illness and Healing by Nicole 2)breast implant illness - the ticking time bomb Hope

I don’t actually use face book anymore. One of very few I know lol. You sound like you have many conditions you’re dealing with on top of the bii. I was diagnosed with M.E & mostly house & bed bound but it came on 6 months after I had implants nearly 11 years ago, so now I’m wondering if it actually is M.E or maybe I could get well if it’s all down to the implants. There’s only one way to find out & get them out! I have an appointment on Friday to see a surgeon. I hope you have a speedy recovery.

Yes I wish you a speedy recovery and Healthy healing. As times goes I will be more able to tell what is the results of my illnesses the BII or something else. But I truly believe BII is the biggest factor.

Hello. I’m from Texas and looking for a surgeon who will perform my explant with local anesthesia. Did you do local or general anesthesia? How much was it if you don’t mind me asking?
