Re: Re: Liz...I think I'm going to go back & have my capsules removed....

Hi,

Why don't you call Dr. Blais about it. He may say

that if they are thin they may take a yeaar or 2 to

absorb or something. If you are feeling well don't

make youself not feel well by taking in information

that may not pertain to you, You should know how you

feel..

I am sorry Jen if i am causing a big commotion, i am only post op one week. i dont think i have even given it enought time to heal though. i am still having problems with my legs and the muscles hurting, i dont know what that is from. what kinds of symptoms are you still having? i never had any abnormal lab work. i dont even though if my implants were infected or not. i am going to see my ps tomorrow to see what he can tell me. then i am going to follow up with my ob doctor to see if i can have a test to see how big my capsules are either an mri or ultrasound. anyone have any advice. i dont know how thick my capsules were, he never told me anything. they were only in for 7 months.

Jen,

I know it's confusing . . . I believe that God gives

each of us the ablitity to KNOW what is right for us.

If you will take in all the information you can get,

then put it in God's hands, He will show you the way.

In the meantime, stay on course. . . Do everything you

can to get as healthy as possible. . . Regardless of

your capsules, there are going to be good days and bad

days.

Just don't overdo it on your good days - sometimes

that brings on bad days! Try to understand what you

are doing to bring about those good days, and what

you've done to bring on the bad days. As you get in

touch with your body, it gets easier all the time.

Love,

Rogene

Hi Jen,

When you apply for insurance coverage be sure to exaggerate all of your symptoms to make it look like it is an absolute necessity that those capsules come out. If the insurance company has any doubt, they won’t pay. Sad but true.

Kenda

Your not causing a commotion in anyway, I'm sorry if I'm scarying

you in anyway! I'm not meaning to, I'm just not sure what to do, I

still have some of my symptoms like circulation problems, light head

sensations, little bits of light tingling thruout & a few other

little things on & off, but I've made a ton of progress since

explant, I was very sick very fast, so I think I'm just getting

frustrated & impatient. Dr Kolb called me this evening & I'm going

to see if my insurance will cover capsule removal, but I really

think you & I were on the border line of not needing our capsules

out because of the short amount of time we had the implants. I also

had my appt w/Dr Leu (Kenda's naturopathic Dr) & he was awesome!

He's going to send me some testing kits that will tell him more of

what's going on in my body & what supplements will help me. So I'm

encouraged about that & I'm excited to see what he says when he gets

my results back.

Since your only 1 wk post I would give yourself at least 7-8 months

first & see how you feel, drink lots of pure water, see a ND if

possible etc & don't stress, give yourself time to heal & detox

first & then maybe see?

Hugs

Jen
