Hi ladies, I've been reading all your reviews for over a year now which has helped me make my decision and I have finally plucked up the courage to book my explant. Its scheduled for the 24th of January i am feeling very nervous aswell as scared at what they are going to look like after! I have very large breasts (40G) and for now I have just decided on the explant without a lift and reduction, I'm praying for a miracle here I think that they will return to how they were before. I have had these implants for 9 years I was a 34B before I told my surgeon that I would like to be a d cup, which never happened, I couldn't believe the size of them after, I had the implant under the muscle. Over the last 5 years or so I have had so many symptoms that make me feel like I'm 60 years old, I'm only 34, i have been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis recently, all my joints ache constantly, I have been getting sharp stabbing pains in my chest, memory loss and I constantly feel tired and drained, iv been to my dr a few times who cannot say/find out what the problem is, I had a scan which said my implants were all intact and that they were only rippled and to buy a decent support bra, I just want to feel fit and healthy again and I'm hoping that once they Are removed I will start To feel better again! Has anyone else had these symptoms and had there's removed? How did you feel after?
Although I'm scared, I am looking forward to having them out, I can't wait to be able to buy some nice tops and dresses and a normal size bra, and actually feel comfortable.
I'm hoping my recovery will be smooth and I can't imagine there being to much pain!
Is anyone else having there surgery soon?

I too made the decision after finding this website just two weeks ago. I have been thinking about it for about 5 years now. My consult is on Thursday. Best wishes.

I just had mine removed and already am feeling better, I think you will too. I am sleeping a little better also. I feel much lighter and my lymph nodes have stopped hurting and it's only been four days. Good luck to you, you will do great and look fine!

I am feeling very nervous :-/ well I suppose this is only normal, i have been heaving all day must be to do with my nerves, although I'm not quite sure why, I've had other surgery before and was fine, think it's probably because I'm worried how there going to look after! I have seen some great reviews though so I am hopeful. I will update once I'm free eeeeek x

Hi, I just read your profile! I know how you feel-I was a 34 C before implants, wanted to be a full C. first surgery had 675 saline-34DD. Second surgery four years ago -got 350 silicone, with a breast lift and still ended up being a 32DDD. It's awful lugging around these melons. What is interesting is I am 41 and at 40 I all of a sudden started getting "peri-menopausal symptoms". However, for some reason my primary doctor did a rheumatoid panel along with a hormone panel and my ANA was high and Rh factor positive and antibodies too!! I don't even have joint pain or any other symptoms that would negate doing the panel. So it does make me suspicious that the silicone implants may have done something to me because I had that panel tested years ago and it was normal.. And yes, my memory sucks. So hopefully when you get your implants out, you will go back to normal. I am getting mine out too on Monday-no lift or capsulectomy. If after 6-8 months I look horrid, I may get another lift but that was a painful recovery. I'm looking at pictures of myself 15 years ago to get myself ready for my appearance. The biggest obstacle is telling my two young girls this weekend that I had fake boobs!! Best of luck to you tomorrow. please post pictures. Thanks for sharing your story.
