Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

The last five years have been a blur. I have spent the entire time fighting for my health that unexpectedly changed with conditions developing out of the blue. My doctors could not explain nor improve. .
It started with an autoimmune illness and progressed to heart conditions, swelling, fatigue, brain fog, memory loss, weight gain, hypertension & joint pain. My doctors diagnosed me with Crohns and we’re close to diagnosing me with Lupus or MS. I tried every elimination diet, exercise, meditation, holistic, self healing and medical testing available with no explanation. Last November my conditions exasperated and put me into the hospital and soon after one day in December fate stepped in and showed me a sign, a sign I wasn’t quite ready to accept but scared me into immediate action. a post about breast implant illness that had all of my symptoms listed in one place. .
.
.
It turns out that I had PIP implants which were recalled back in 2009, the manufacturers were using toxic materials not intend for the human body and making women terminally ill. .
I am happy to say that I am a week out of surgery and have had them removed. 75% of my symptoms have began to disappear. After years of being poisoned I am starting the process of testing for heavy metals and to see the extent of the damage that 17 years of exposure has created. . I share this on this page in hopes of helping any other women suffering With no explanation and despite many doctors not believing me, I continue to be my own best health advocate. .

.
It is unbelievable and infuriating that I have been part of one of the world’s biggest medical scandals.To date there are about 400,000 women effected by this. The owner of the company is serving 4 years in jail and no surgery centers will even admit these cause health problems.
I feel like I am among the few that replaced my implants instead of a complete removal. This decision was made quickly as I wanted to get the implants out as soon as possible and since I went from an A to a C cup I was told I would probably need a lift. I chose to replace to give myself some time to look at all my options when I decide to remove completely. I hope that in a few years modern medicine will advance more towards successful fat grafting.
