Re: New Symptoms for me - Lea

Kenda,

What I've observed is that, if a woman gets worse

after explant, the chances are high that she had a

extracapsular rupture (especially gel) or a spill

during explant.

There are times a rupture cannot be avoided, even by

an excellent surgeon . . . The capsule may already be

compromised, or the capsule attached to tissue in such

a way it cannot be removed intact.

It's promising that the level of silicone passed in

urine peaks at explant . . . i.e. silicone can leave

the body! . . . The question is, How much damage is

already done?
