I’ve been having depression, panic attacks, body shaking all over, anxiety, weight gain, thyroid problems, body odor, joint pain, and tired all the time. I hate this! I feel like I’m going crazy.I’m crying right now because I cant believe I did this to my body. I want these out. I want my life back. I get my explant next week. Thank You God
Deep breath. You've got this. Even after your implants are out don't panic if things don't instantly revert back to normal. You will need to work on getting things balanced again so find a physician that will work with you on this. Hang in there.
Girl I feel the same. I can't believe I did this to myself but we have to be forgiving of ourselves because we were not armed with this information when we got them in. I was told they were safe and there was nothing to worry about. I can't wait to get these toxic bags out. I pray for your swift healing.
My implants almost killed me. I had no idea what was wrong. Doctors thought that I was crazy. And I am a medical professional !!! Explanted and got remarkablely better.
I explanted in 2019 and I’m so glad I did! I went from feeling like an 80 year old woman to feeling young again 🙌🏻 Best decision I ever made for my health ❤ I will continue to educate other women who feel sick and daily fatigue 😢
Thank you for stating this! I am looking into a surgeon now. Keep saying how I feel I've aged too rapidly in the past two years...along with so many more syptoms.😒
My explant was 3 weeks ago. I had memory issues, felt like I was in a fog, extreme fatigue, constant headache & nausea to name a few. I went to multiple physicians & was told all of my labs were normal. Less than 4 hours post op, my headache was gone. I didn’t realize how much pain I was in until it stopped. Each day I get a little better.
I explanted in 2018 and it was the best thing I could have done for my health. My implants made me so incredibly sick. Explanting gave me my life back 💗 so glad to see this content available for people
Thank you for doing this. I pray this can reach people before considering implants. I'm slowly dying because of them. I'm completely bed ridden and disabled now. Getting implants was the worst mistake I've ever made..I don't wish this on anyone. 😭
My wife is going through this right now and in April she is getting them out ! Thanks God. I been telling her since she got them that is affecting her now she believes me
I had my implants removed 3 years ago. A year after receiving my implants, I started noticing the intense fatigue, alcohol intolerance, liver disfunction, memory loss, anxiety, and depression. This is only a few issues I've developed. After having the implants removed, I had a genetics test done and found out that I have MTHFR gene mutation which makes it difficult for my liver to rid itself of toxins and metals. So, it wasn't surprising that I had extremely high levels of heavy metals in my system due to my implants. I am truly afraid of what this might mean for my health in the future.
Cosmetic surgeons will totally deny you are getting sick from your implants. In fact the surgeon will act as though you're not sick at all. My surgeon offered to sell me new replacements. One of the implants had ruptured. He had no interest in how I felt health wise. I had an explant because I was ill from the implants. I'm not sure how to check my health to see if the problem is out of my body totally. Tests and treatments don't seem to be offered specifically for implant illness. Some doctors don't believe in it. My advice is don't get implants. Thank you for this Ted Talk that needs even more research and acknowledgement.
Had you tried a hair test for food intolerances, heavy metal and vitamin and mineral deficiency? That helped me and my daughter to found out about heavy metal and the base to proceed with next steps.
I had one plastic surgeon tell me to put up with grade 3 capsular contraction and just live on ibuprofen for the pain. Another one told me if I got on antidepressants I'd learn to love my implants. Explanted them and my vision even got better.
Truth be told... And with the exception of just a few, for the most part, the medical community as a whole find the "implications" that come with accepting, that no implant is safe. So, of course, cosmetic surgeons are in denial. I mean, imagin having to contend with that the cost and effort it takes to get through med school plus specialty training. And then be confronted with the undeniable facts of the damage they cause by continuing to implant women.
I explanted 6 months ago...and feel so much better. I feel like I was pushed into reconstruction after a double mastectomy after cancer. My symptoms started about 6 years after surgery, and disappeared immediately after removal.
My mom got an explants at about your age. She's the happiest she's ever been. I wish I didn't get mine done but I am so afraid of what my boobs will look like 💔
I've never had interest in getting implants but my passive intake of content + algorithm has brought me here. Thank you Dr. Miles for your investigation!
Removing my implants was life changing, 25+ chronic & debilitating symptoms disappeared after explant surgery 🎉 and I do not miss them in one single way!
I’m having joint paint, severe sternum chest pain, depression, panic attacks, dry skin, acne, dry eyes, dizziness, honestly the list goes on. I got my saline implants in 2014. June will make exactly 8 years. I called and made an appointment for a Explant consultation on Wednesday. I’m really hoping it doesn’t take long to schedule me for surgery.
I get chest pain almost every morning now…especially on my right chest. My theory is that maybe my muscle no longer can carry the implant. I’m convinced it has something to do w my implants.
My best friend had a laundry list of symptoms and once they were out many of them simply disappeared. So there is hope in just removal. But detoxing will be key! She never fully detoxed and is still dealing with a few symptoms, but NOTHING like she had when she had her implants. Wishing you so much healing!
I’m exactly 2 weeks away from surgery. I’m both equally nervous and scared. But I’m also excited to feel like a human again. I’m happy to hear your friend is healing well.
Day 5 of my explant. Had (saline)them 26+ yrs. Only within past almost 3 mos did I learn about BII. And I had so many symptoms and thought it was my age, almost 66. Been little sore, not sleeping well but all in all very happy they are gone. I thought 1 might be leaking, wasn't. They came out clear. As said above...do not get implants.
Thank you Laura for sharing your Explant story and experience with implants. Through sharing we will evoke change...time to stop suffering in silence! My Total Enbloc was on 6/30/22 and day by day my health is improving.
I’m so sorry for what you have gone through but glad that you did, as a woman AND a physician and that you are tying the science to BII. I’ve heard too many times by plastic surgeons that this is a patient driven phenomenon and therefore isn’t real.
I had mine removed 3 years ago. I was so I’ll before explant. I would like to know more about the heavy metals and how to get rid of them. My heavy metal test showed high tin as well. I acquired 3 autoimmune diseases after getting implants. So glad we are on the healing side.
I'm using nutritionist Karen Hurd for healing. I'm at 3 years explant and in January was diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder. So I'm doing Karen's anti-inflammatory course and protocol, and when I emailed her she included 1 tsp of minced, sautéed garlic per day to carry out the heavy metals (must have something, like beans or psyllium husk, to carry out these metals or they recirculate). This is just what I have chosen, but you will find your way back to health!
@@098vx It is either Lupus or Rheumatoid Arthritis. I’ve decided I don’t need more tests or a confirmed diagnosis as to which one to take it seriously. I’m ready to heal now. 😊
I love how this information is laid out! I have BII and had my implants taken out 3 years ago. BUT, I didn’t fully detox and recently had labs come back with me still having big-time hormone issues and a positive autoimmune test pointing to Lupus or Rheumatoid Arthritis. I will be doing a full and complete detox soon and cannot wait to feel like myself again! Ladies, there is hope! I feel so much better than I once did! You can too!
How? Please tell me what kind of detox? I have a dear friend that is suffering from this. I also suggested she do a detox after she has a enbloc. I think she will be better off since hers are saline. Still, she is suffering and it is not like her at all. So many symptoms. I want my friend back and to get her health back. Please share.
@@eclectictomboy6873 I first detoxed with Detox with Dawn. She uses Doug Kaufmann’s antifungal diet and a slew of supplements. It was expensive but I felt great. Now I’m going to use Karen Hurd.

I'm started to think 🤔 I might have this. I've been to multiple specialists for my vertigo dizziness, shortness of breath, fatigue, weakness and headaches, nausea and some ringing in my ears and everything come out fine. I think I found my answer.
After my mastectomy, I had reconstruction. A year later I took out the implant and feel so much better. I was itching everywhere and it stopped as soon after implant was out
THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS TO ATTENTION!! My mother has been suffering for years- leaked; has encapsulated areas w silicone remaining- no one can properly diagnose- or they just won’t….
I am actively dying as I’m watching this video, I’ve been researching bii for 5 or 6 years. I’m very analytical and slow to jump on the bandwagon, as a result, I’ve been very skeptical about removal.🤦🏻♀️ I can no longer ignore my symptoms as I can barely make it through each day, I literally feel like I’m dying. I’m not seeking sympathy so please don’t feel sorry, I simply felt it necessary to share. May everyone find the answers they are seeking and here’s to a speedy recovery. 🍾🥂🎉
So informative and thank you for outlining all the research. Hopefully other medical practitioners start making the connections. I explanted 2 months ago - No regrets.
Thank you! I am 6 months post explant after saline filled implants from 2003. I was feeling as though I had RA . I was "negative" for all the factors pointing to RA, but my inflammation test was high. I haven't had new blood work yet but I had been treating chronic GERD symptoms for almost all of the 20 years and the next day I quit taking the meds and I haven't had the symptoms since! I was taking Adderall for focus, depression and ADHD issues. I haven't taken it since either and my symptoms are all gone!
Yes. It’s real. I had silicone implants for 9+ years. I was sick for the ENTIRE time. No one believed me. I knew about BII. But, I ignored it and had a revision, thinking I’d get better. After a few months, I got exponentially sicker. On May 10 2019 I had them removed, along with the capsules. When I woke from surgery, I was already better. It’s been a rough three years. But I now have control of my own health.
it sounds like you had your implants replaced after nine years and then with new implants in for only 3 months, you got much worse. But if they developed capsules, then you must have had the new ones in for a while, right. Our values in society are so inverted. We used to revere Jesus who taught to avoid lustful thoughts and to dress modestly. Women have been victimized by this upside thinking.
@@cosmictruthseeker3796 I was in denial. Another plastic surgeon talked me into getting new implants, inferring it would help me recover. So I did that. These guys didn’t believe in capsulectomy. In May 2019, I found a surgeon who did. The morning after my explant, he called to check on me. He said, “Don’t ever get implants. Your body rejects them.”
@@janerimer6475 that is so enlightening that the body could create a capsule in 3 months. The body is amazing. I was a caregiver for a 99 year old woman and as I was getting her healthier with organic fresh fruit and vegetables, her body ejected her pacemaker. The body just pushed out her pacemaker over the course of weeks out through a hole it made. The pacemaker had been in there for years. She wasn't even using the pacemaker anymore so the body probably knew it had to go. Also the pacemaker was the source of an infection from the biofilm so the body again was protecting itself by pushing it out. Sadly her daughter administered morphine before I could continue the natural healing with her.
There needs to be a way to make this information more accessible to the general public regardless of what the medical community says. Do they keep track of how many women commit suicide with/without implants? I would like to see those numbers as well.
19 years old implants...25 or so symptoms...fibromyalgia type symptoms & more...symptoms spike & fade some at times.... all specialties say all tests are normal.. I don't have any diagnosis & don't take medications. Rheumatologist recommended Mayo & Mayo has rejected me saying they are overwhelmed with patients! I am researching who to go with for explantation.... they hurt, are uncomfortable, still greatly numb on right side, left is better over the years but somewhat numb... can't believe I did this to myself.
Hope you got rid of them The idea that you can put an unnatural and synthetic bag into your body without side effects and illness is absolutely crazy Amazing how surgeons caused people to dismiss their intuition so they can make money is amazing
Your not missing anything at Mayo. My wife and I went there a few years back. It felt like the Mall of America in health care. Not impressed. They are quite full of themselves. All kinds of tests. No talk about BII. I was unaware of BII back then. They came up with the same fibromyalgia bull. So here I am with a sick wife who hears nothing from the experts. Just her husband who looked it up on the internet, and she gets quite agitated when I try to talk about it. This has been frustrating for me to say the least.
My story only worse, for over 13 years before I found out about this, and being told LIES by all my doctors, including the head of plastic surgery at U of Mi!!! I lost my life, my career of teaching, my fiancé, all my money, and my family. Everyone thought I was on drugs. I never recovered because I had about 5 autoimmune diseases develop, infections that came out of nowhere, a stroke, and mold toxicity. I had a toxin overload, 3 major surgeries within 5 months, and had to wait 5 months to get well enough to explant. The hospital gave me with pseudomonas aeriginosa as a nice gift. However, the damage was done. I’m still recovering 4 1/2 years later, and ready to cash it in.
Don’t give up, Kathryn. You never know, tomorrow might very well be the day you’ve been waiting for - the day you’ll feel much more like you’re old self - and you wouldn’t want to miss that!! Sending lots of healing thoughts your way 🙏🙂 ~Kelly
So sorry to hear about all your obstacles. Just horrible, the lies!! If woman were informed (by the medical field, should be an obligation) we wouldn't be so sick today. Question, have your day to day symptoms improved?? I hope you are doing fantastic & that your symptoms have gone away 🌻🌻🌻
The fact that a man made product can be stuffed into the human body with something completely synthetic and unnatural, without there being any side effects, infections, defects or severe illness or death is COMPLETELY RIDICULOUS!..... 🙄
Ladies, question... Does insurance cover explant? If it doesn't about how much was your total cost & recovery time? As of today, thanks to all your comments & stories which were SUPER helpful, I am considering explant in the next 12 months. Thank you for sharing all your stories.
Hi, yes, just depends your insurance. Most at this moment are covering the total or some of the surgery. You can consult with your doctor/specialist and help you with a letter regarding the surgery for medically necessary.
Thank you thank you for this video! I wonder how many of us have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia when the real cause Is what’s being triggered by implants. Here’s to hope!
Any help and suggestions on the best approaches to get my Ambetter insurance to pre approve my explant is very welcome 🙏 I can’t believe I was worried about how these would make me feel and look afterward and was trying to watch out for it, I still have spent the past 3 years trying to figure out what has been wrong with me after implanting six years ago. I hope there’s more awareness around this and people are amply warned and given the CORRECT info rather than lied to during consultations
I had a severe reaction to a copper IUD 2 years into having it in my body. I can honestly say I know what it feels like to be poisoned and I was so afraid I would kill myself. I was 100% better 48 hours after having it out. I can totally believe that implants could cause reactions too...
but there is a huge difference between silicone and copper (copper literally releases small fractions into your bloodstream and they evoke inflammation). that is how they work
Wow! I’m considering an IUD and did not even consider having a reaction, sounds like I need to do more research before putting things that seem harmless in my body. Thanks for sharing
IUD gave me a horrific rash a few weeks out and low grade fever. I ended up in ER and demanded they remove it asap due to potential poisoning I couldn't wait for the doctor's appt
here's my little rant. as an acupuncturist, I found that people with piercings like in their belly button also have health issues, and I thought it was just from the irritation on the acupoint, but I also realize it has to do with the metal itself microleeching., kind of like the copper affecting you. I also found that people with really large tattoos heal much slower than non-tattooed people. I read that the rich colors can have heavy metals, such as the red ink containing cinnabar. Inks are not regulated.
I would say no! You need all your lymph nodes because they detox your body. Start getting electric and manual lymph drainage! That what I did after explanting.
Everything is great! On is a little harder than the other but doctor says that's normal and will change. My best friend is getting hers done this week!
I’m wondering if the same thing can happen with dermal fillers? Even thought they are made from hyaluronic acid the body could still see it as a foreign object. I’ve had them done for around 4 years now and have similar symptoms like insomnia, tiredness, brain fog, nausea and lack of energy getting worse during that time.
Calcification around implants here. My surgeon says can only remove top of capsule because it is too much risk to remove the bottom one due to possible damage to bone and other parts adjacent to the area. Anyone else had this answer? Anyone else that had explant done had only the implants removed or always the capsule as well? Any answers are appreciated.
An experienced surgeon will be able to perform an en bloc removal of the implant and the capsule , so please find one of that does. Especially when you have calcification & encapsulation.
Implants has caused diagnosed autoimmune disorder, fibromyalgia, severe weight gain, joint pain, extreme exhaustion, constant body pain and depression/anxiety. Until they can find a better solution for implants, DO NOT get Implants as it is highly likely issues will occur.
I’m having to wait until the end of June for a consultation. It’s hard to patient. I’m loading with high oxalate toxicity after being vegan for so many years.
I too have suffered from high oxalates and have lots of issues and these lousy implants of 23 years. Just learning bout all this BII and suffering from it also. Hope you are doing better Jo.
According to the plastic surgeon that I consulted, he says if you are concerned about BII, then you must get the capsulectomy or it really won’t solve the problem. Yes it is very expensive, which is why I haven’t explanted yet. I can’t afford it . I so wish insurance would cover at least some of it since it is leading to an illness.
Thanks for sharing. I have a hernia mesh after my surgery in 2018. Today I’m so sick I can barely work, workout, and I have so many sensitivities. Only after investigation we realise the brand and type of mesh is 3D printed plastic that’s been disputed in many many legal cases globally for causing issues. Looking at getting it removed now.
@@markstuart9545 Implants can send the immune system into overdrive, for sure! Especially since they raise histamine production levels in the body. no good
Implants can send the immune system into overdrive. Implants raise histamine production levels in the body. Implants are viewed by the body as an allergen. Studies are showing this now. (**note: I posted this particular comment before and interestingly, I noticed it was “hidden”. Curious. I am posting it again to observe if it gets hidden again.) Hope you are doing well, Mark!
Same .. they are made with silicone shells so they are still toxic to the body. Furthermore they are a foreign object to the body so inflammation occurs and the immune system will still be triggered.

THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS TO ATTENTION!! My mother has been suffering for years- leaked; has encapsulated areas w silicone remaining- no one can properly diagnose- or they just won’t….
I explained three days ago. I had them in for six months and they were killing me.
How do you feel now
What do you replace it with?
I am actively dying as I’m watching this video, I’ve been researching bii for 5 or 6 years. I’m very analytical and slow to jump on the bandwagon, as a result, I’ve been very skeptical about removal.🤦🏻♀️ I can no longer ignore my symptoms as I can barely make it through each day, I literally feel like I’m dying. I’m not seeking sympathy so please don’t feel sorry, I simply felt it necessary to share. May everyone find the answers they are seeking and here’s to a speedy recovery. 🍾🥂🎉
Did you explant meanwhile?
I think you can add dislocated ribs, 3 in succession, bilaterally, directly under 30 yr old silicone implants, to your list of ailments.
So informative and thank you for outlining all the research. Hopefully other medical practitioners start making the connections. I explanted 2 months ago - No regrets.
How are you recouping? I’m 3 weeks out. Still experiencing some pain. Wondering if that is normal??
How are they fda approved?
Thank you! I am 6 months post explant after saline filled implants from 2003. I was feeling as though I had RA . I was "negative" for all the factors pointing to RA, but my inflammation test was high. I haven't had new blood work yet but I had been treating chronic GERD symptoms for almost all of the 20 years and the next day I quit taking the meds and I haven't had the symptoms since! I was taking Adderall for focus, depression and ADHD issues. I haven't taken it since either and my symptoms are all gone!
Yes. It’s real.
I had silicone implants for 9+ years. I was sick for the ENTIRE time. No one believed me.
I knew about BII. But, I ignored it and had a revision, thinking I’d get better. After a few months, I got exponentially sicker. On May 10 2019 I had them removed, along with the capsules. When I woke from surgery, I was already better.
It’s been a rough three years. But I now have control of my own health.
Oh my god. I’m glad it’s over for you. Thanks for sharing, it’s helped me
it sounds like you had your implants replaced after nine years and then with new implants in for only 3 months, you got much worse. But if they developed capsules, then you must have had the new ones in for a while, right.
Our values in society are so inverted. We used to revere Jesus who taught to avoid lustful thoughts and to dress modestly. Women have been victimized by this upside thinking.
@@cosmictruthseeker3796 I was in denial. Another plastic surgeon talked me into getting new implants, inferring it would help me recover. So I did that. These guys didn’t believe in capsulectomy.
In May 2019, I found a surgeon who did. The morning after my explant, he called to check on me. He said, “Don’t ever get implants. Your body rejects them.”
@@cosmictruthseeker3796 PS. My body created a second capsule in only three months.
@@janerimer6475 that is so enlightening that the body could create a capsule in 3 months. The body is amazing. I was a caregiver for a 99 year old woman and as I was getting her healthier with organic fresh fruit and vegetables, her body ejected her pacemaker. The body just pushed out her pacemaker over the course of weeks out through a hole it made. The pacemaker had been in there for years. She wasn't even using the pacemaker anymore so the body probably knew it had to go. Also the pacemaker was the source of an infection from the biofilm so the body again was protecting itself by pushing it out. Sadly her daughter administered morphine before I could continue the natural healing with her.
Man, I feel all these things 😭 I can’t afford to get mine out. Praying one day insurance will pay to have the removal 🤍
There are some insurance that are accepting the explant as a medically necessary. There's a lot of private BII that can help and support you.
Try to get Care Credit through the surgeons office. It's a loan to get the surgery then you pay the loan back in monthly payments.
Same 😢
@@marcycat
- how much is the interest?
There needs to be a way to make this information more accessible to the general public regardless of what the medical community says. Do they keep track of how many women commit suicide with/without implants? I would like to see those numbers as well.
Unfortunately the numbers still kipping up, some because they can't handle the pain and the lack of support either way from doctors or family. 😞
I enjoyed your presentation very much and appreciate that you spoke in a way that I could understand rather than medical lingo.
19 years old implants...25 or so symptoms...fibromyalgia type symptoms & more...symptoms spike & fade some at times.... all specialties say all tests are normal.. I don't have any diagnosis & don't take medications. Rheumatologist recommended Mayo & Mayo has rejected me saying they are overwhelmed with patients! I am researching who to go with for explantation.... they hurt, are uncomfortable, still greatly numb on right side, left is better over the years but somewhat numb... can't believe I did this to myself.
Hope you got rid of them
The idea that you can put an unnatural and synthetic bag into your body without side effects and illness is absolutely crazy
Amazing how surgeons caused people to dismiss their intuition so they can make money is amazing
Your not missing anything at Mayo. My wife and I went there a few years back. It felt like the Mall of America in health care. Not impressed. They are quite full of themselves. All kinds of tests. No talk about BII.
I was unaware of BII back then. They came up with the same fibromyalgia bull. So here I am with a sick wife who hears nothing from the experts. Just her husband who looked it up on the internet, and she gets quite agitated when I try to talk about it. This has been frustrating for me to say the least.
DO NOT GET IMPLANTS
It’s real it’s horrible and best thing I did was remove mine
Both were ruptured
Treatment options would be a fabulous topic!
My story only worse, for over 13 years before I found out about this, and being told LIES by all my doctors, including the head of plastic surgery at U of Mi!!!
I lost my life, my career of teaching, my fiancé, all my money, and my family. Everyone thought I was on drugs.
I never recovered because I had about 5 autoimmune diseases develop, infections that came out of nowhere, a stroke, and mold toxicity. I had a toxin overload, 3 major surgeries within 5 months, and had to wait 5 months to get well enough to explant. The hospital gave me with pseudomonas aeriginosa as a nice gift.
However, the damage was done. I’m still recovering 4 1/2 years later, and ready to cash it in.
I'm sorry this happened to you. Never give up hope!
@@imnesere Thank you! I’m trying not to! I have a 6 year-old granddaughter who is my hope.
Don’t give up, Kathryn. You never know, tomorrow might very well be the day you’ve been waiting for - the day you’ll feel much more like you’re old self - and you wouldn’t want to miss that!! Sending lots of healing thoughts your way 🙏🙂
~Kelly
So sorry to hear about all your obstacles. Just horrible, the lies!!
If woman were informed
(by the medical field, should be an obligation) we wouldn't be so sick today.
Question, have your day to day symptoms improved?? I hope you are doing fantastic & that your symptoms have gone away 🌻🌻🌻
@@imneserepraying for you
We will heal all 🙏
Pray 🙏
Had mine removed, got my life back.
Don't get implants, learn to love yourself , not bags of silicone.
The fact that a man made product can be stuffed into the human body with something completely synthetic and unnatural, without there being any side effects, infections, defects or severe illness or death is COMPLETELY RIDICULOUS!..... 🙄
ESPECALLY the stuff used to seal windows and doors to keep cold air from getting inside!
Ladies, question...
Does insurance cover explant?
If it doesn't about how much was your total cost & recovery time?
As of today, thanks to all your comments & stories which were SUPER helpful, I am considering explant in the next 12 months. Thank you for sharing all your stories.
Hi, yes, just depends your insurance. Most at this moment are covering the total or some of the surgery. You can consult with your doctor/specialist and help you with a letter regarding the surgery for medically necessary.
Where are you located?. I can help you to find the right BII private group for help and support.
@@vocesdemujeres.6181 I am located in Fontana, California 🌻
@@vocesdemujeres.6181 I had no idea they would pay. I would have my out already had I known. They are still there because I can’t afford the surgery .
Contact the manufacturer if is allergan the will pay for the surgery
And to think that i wanted to go for it 😭thank you
Chin implant here, soon to be explant tomorrow bc of these symptoms. THIS NEEDS TO BE LISTENED TO BY ALL.
Thank you thank you for this video! I wonder how many of us have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia when the real cause Is what’s being triggered by implants. Here’s to hope!
I wish I knew all this before!
I hope you feel good right now! Thank you for sharing your story
Thank you! I feel fantastic!
Any help and suggestions on the best approaches to get my Ambetter insurance to pre approve my explant is very welcome 🙏
I can’t believe I was worried about how these would make me feel and look afterward and was trying to watch out for it, I still have spent the past 3 years trying to figure out what has been wrong with me after implanting six years ago.
I hope there’s more awareness around this and people are amply warned and given the CORRECT info rather than lied to during consultations
Amazing talk! Great references, I’d like to hear more about BII!
For those who explanted their implants, especially mastectomy patients, did you replace with saline??? What did you do???
Knocking it out of the park! Thank you!!!
I had a severe reaction to a copper IUD 2 years into having it in my body. I can honestly say I know what it feels like to be poisoned and I was so afraid I would kill myself. I was 100% better 48 hours after having it out. I can totally believe that implants could cause reactions too...
but there is a huge difference between silicone and copper (copper literally releases small fractions into your bloodstream and they evoke inflammation). that is how they work
Wow! I’m considering an IUD and did not even consider having a reaction, sounds like I need to do more research before putting things that seem harmless in my body. Thanks for sharing
IUD gave me a horrific rash a few weeks out and low grade fever. I ended up in ER and demanded they remove it asap due to potential poisoning I couldn't wait for the doctor's appt
Omg I had same still think I have some symptoms 2 years later
here's my little rant. as an acupuncturist, I found that people with piercings like in their belly button also have health issues, and I thought it was just from the irritation on the acupoint, but I also realize it has to do with the metal itself microleeching., kind of like the copper affecting you. I also found that people with really large tattoos heal much slower than non-tattooed people. I read that the rich colors can have heavy metals, such as the red ink containing cinnabar. Inks are not regulated.
THANK YOU 😭❣️😭❣️😭❣️😭❣️😭❣️😭❣️😭❣️😭❣️
Do you recommend having lymph nodes removed that are silicone filled?
I wanna know that too.
Me too. Please answer
@@MyviolentheartEvey I also would like to know
I would say no! You need all your lymph nodes because they detox your body. Start getting electric and manual lymph drainage! That what I did after explanting.
This is not recommended, only in really extreme cases as you need your lymph nodes, so try to detox and clean up your pathways !
You’re Awesome. Thank you!
3 months after getting implants here and I am genuinely so happy
Finally something good, any updates?
How do you feel now? I want them but now I am so nervous.
Everything is great! On is a little harder than the other but doctor says that's normal and will change. My best friend is getting hers done this week!
Agree I’ve had mine for 8 years and happy
@@Melanie3581omg… finally a positive comment… can’t believe so many people removed their implants 😢 are you still happy.¿
I’m wondering if the same thing can happen with dermal fillers? Even thought they are made from hyaluronic acid the body could still see it as a foreign object. I’ve had them done for around 4 years now and have similar symptoms like insomnia, tiredness, brain fog, nausea and lack of energy getting worse during that time.
If it’s foreign to your body, your body will recognise it as such.
How is it now? I was planning to go for fillers..
Calcification around implants here. My surgeon says can only remove top of capsule because it is too much risk to remove the bottom one due to possible damage to bone and other parts adjacent to the area. Anyone else had this answer? Anyone else that had explant done had only the implants removed or always the capsule as well? Any answers are appreciated.
An experienced surgeon will be able to perform an en bloc removal of the implant and the capsule , so please find one of that does. Especially when you have calcification & encapsulation.
Find an experienced surgeon regarding explant with the right procedure En-bloc with total capsulectomy.
Implants has caused diagnosed autoimmune disorder, fibromyalgia, severe weight gain, joint pain, extreme exhaustion, constant body pain and depression/anxiety. Until they can find a better solution for implants, DO NOT get Implants as it is highly likely issues will occur.
Subtítulos en español por favor 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Can an IUD cause the same problems?
Someone in one of the comments said hers caused all of these same symptoms. Any foreign object has the potential of causing an immune response.
I’m having to wait until the end of June for a consultation. It’s hard to patient. I’m loading with high oxalate toxicity after being vegan for so many years.
Hang in there. You can start working on optimizing all the other systems which will help you heal faster after surgery.
Wait, from being vegan? Or you mean that Vegan diet didnt help lower the toxicity
I too have suffered from high oxalates and have lots of issues and these lousy implants of 23 years. Just learning bout all this BII and suffering from it also.
Hope you are doing better Jo.
What about leaving the scar tissue/capsule and taking the impant out? It is twice as expensive to have an en bloc/ capsulectomy but is it necessary?
According to the plastic surgeon that I consulted, he says if you are concerned about BII, then you must get the capsulectomy or it really won’t solve the problem. Yes it is very expensive, which is why I haven’t explanted yet. I can’t afford it . I so wish insurance would cover at least some of it since it is leading to an illness.
Yes You Must do Enblock ..
The amazing liver and gallbladder flush by Andreas Moritz can be a good supplement to a body detox protocol
That sounds like my story!
Thanks for sharing.
I have a hernia mesh after my surgery in 2018. Today I’m so sick I can barely work, workout, and I have so many sensitivities.
Only after investigation we realise the brand and type of mesh is 3D printed plastic that’s been disputed in many many legal cases globally for causing issues.
Looking at getting it removed now.
wishing you a positive explantation💚
@@SS_333 thank you, after looking around it looks like MCAS. Which is so nice to learn!
@@markstuart9545 Implants can send the immune system into overdrive, for sure! Especially since they raise histamine production levels in the body. no good
@@SS_333 a hallmark of MCAS is high histamine levels!
Implants can send the immune system into overdrive.
Implants raise histamine production levels in the body.
Implants are viewed by the body as an allergen. Studies are showing this now.
(**note: I posted this particular comment before and interestingly, I noticed it was “hidden”. Curious. I am posting it again to observe if it gets hidden again.)
Hope you are doing well, Mark!
So can we heal after removing them ?
does this mean saline is a safer route? or are implants as a whole a disaster waiting to happen?
No! Saline implants are just as dangerous and deadly. The outer shell is silicone made from 40+ chemicals! No different than silicone implants. ☠️
No, because the capsules are Silicone!!!
7:38 I'm having a really hard time finding more info on this.... :(
It’s intentional we can’t find more info. I’m so glad this is on TH-cam still
Thank you!
i wonder what the percentage is, for implant illness,
Do these symptoms, and all this information apply to saline implants as well?
Yes. I had saline implants and had all the same symptoms.
Yes they do as the shell is made from silicone. Plus it is still a foreign device in your body that it will react to :(
Thank you both🙏
@@kimsmolders - wow I didn’t know the shell is silicone. Urgh!
Help us Lord!
How do you chelate from tin?
EDTA cream.
Awesome presentation - your story could be mine.
Thank you! So many women share this story don't they? I hope you are doing well!
What about saline implants?
Same .. they are made with silicone shells so they are still toxic to the body. Furthermore they are a foreign object to the body so inflammation occurs and the immune system will still be triggered.
If I’m not mistaken I believe the capsule is still silicone???
@@susannearmenta4758 the capsules absorb/retain all the heavy metal/silicón, also protect from liquid/seroma. The capsules are also associated to Cancer Linfoma BIA-ALCL and Carcinoma (skin cancer)
Thank u
I just got my implants last year and i been having lots of burning sensation going to my armpits 😭
I was goin for implants now i m scared 😢
Don’t do it!! Learn to love yourself as God made you. Waiting to get mine explanted! Nothing but health issues since getting them!
So getting implants is not recommended for someone with hypothyroidism 😕
It was way too expensive to get a culture after the expense of the explant.
No entiendo inglés 😢
Ausgezeichnet! Vielen Dank
Yeah take it off baby! 🤩😎
you must remove the capsule as well or you will not get better !
