WORTH IT$5,000
I had my 350cc saline implants put in almost 11 years ago sub-muscular. I was 38 years old. I'm 49 years old now, and the thought of celebrating my 50th birthday implant free truly delights me. I never really liked my implants, the feeling of heaviness and discomfort is always with me, specially during my daily jog. After augmentation I was larger than I wanted to be. I asked my PS for a full C, but ended up with 36DDs. Over the last four years I have also developed two autoimmune diseases: Hashimoto"s and IC (Interstitial Cystitis) a very painful and tricky bladder condition. Things got so bad for me that a year ago I had to stop working to concentrate on my health. Through diet, meditation and exercise my health has somewhat improved, but I still have a long way to go. I'm excited to see how my body will react once the implants are gone. I wish I had left my body the way it was, but maybe, I needed to travel this journey to appreciate what I have even more. My surgery has been scheduled for September 21st at 10:45 am. I want to extend my gratitude and thankfulness to all of you ladies who care enough to share your stories and show me that there is a way out of my mistake with a wonderful future ahead.

You may end up that c you wanted!, but at least your b... Are you having the capsules removed? Best to, especially with health issues...this is where silicone fragments flake off and break down into, the body forms it to protect us... It's the faster way to get better and not all surgeons do it, because they don't believe in Breast implant illness, but it's real!...and Im hoping you get a great recovery over time!..there are several facebook groups for healing from Breast implant illness which outline in files many supplements, I think one of the best ways tho is go wheatgrass, it covers almost everything!... And should help with your bladder too, the more alkaline the system n blood the better for everything else!... [RS bleep] feel free to message me if you want to know more...otherwise yay for you n all the very best! Xxxx

Hi 40 and about to be free. Thank you for your kind words. I do follow an alkaline plant based diet. My husband Juices for us every single morning. We found out that adding turmeric and ginger to our juice has helped my bladder because it works on inflammation. Wheatgrass? Are you talking fresh Wheatgrass? I recently started on a powder supplement called "BarleyMax" it is made from the juice of young barley grass and alfalfa. I have also noticed improvement with my bladder since I started eating 60% of my food raw. For breakstafast I have my juice and a huge bowl of different fruits. Lunch is a big salad and something cooked. Dinner is something small with raw vegetables.

Wow, immaculate diet! Yes, fresh is best, the enzymes are destroyed in powdering it... It's incredible, has almost every mineral in it and is obviously high in chlorophyll, it has saved me more than once! Builds the best blood!..ok, time I started growing it again! ;) Off to the plant place to buy organic compost to grow it in!... And I need to create an organic garden!... ;) yea the more we stick to how we are designed to live, eat and think the better we get, I'm optimistic you'll have great results and recovery, just give it time!... Took years of poisoning so feels like ages for some things, but only days after Explant I noticed immediate relief for some things! We are well designed, our bodies do so well coping with what they have aye! So, take care n keep us posted! Xxxx :) love n hugs!

You're welcome :)
Yes, Dr Richards offered to remove the implants under local anesthesia in his office. He said that my implants moved freely and he couldn't feel any capsular contracture, thus, making me a great candidate for needle aspiration and removal. Because of my autoimmune diseases, I chose to remove the capsule as well. If I didn't have health issues, I would have chosen to do it in office for sure. Hope this helps and let me know if you have anymore questions. Hugs.
