Hi Lea,

Are you talking about silicone leaking or saline? My implants did not leak at all. This was proven by Dr. Blais. He is about the ONLY doctor that I believe these days. He measured the amount of saline in each and it matched the amount that had been inserted on the day of implant.

Honey, all breast implants leak from the day that they are implanted. This is well documented and if women would do more research they would be informed. It makes me so angry when I see some doctors who write letters claiming that breast implants are safe. Most all of these doctors work for the manufacturers. A few months ago, I called the director of Biochemistry here at the UofA to see if he would agree to do platinum testing on me. He did agree, because he knows my case so well. He asked if I knew that there is a high incidence of lung cancer in women who have breast implants, and that these women smoke and lead risky lifestyles. I wanted to slap his face, how dare he make such a comment. The next day he made sure that an article was published claiming that platinum was not a problem in women who have breast implants. What is going on??

Sending love to all....Lea (I'm off to see my doctor)

Hi Rogene,My aunt and sister don’t take care of themselves at all — not even mammograms! My sister has had her implants 10 years and I have been nagging her to at least get them checked out to be sure they aren’t leaking silicone. She feels fine, that’s all that matters. Getting implants replaced regularly sounds like good advice to me. I’d have to wonder about all of that scar tissue being removed, or do they just leave it in surgery after surgery?Kenda

Kenda,Some of the earliest implants actually were safer . ..Shells were thicker and they didn't rupture asreadily. Then they started on the "new and improved"models. >From what I've seen, women who take extradordinarlygood care of themselves . . . eat right and exercisetolerate them longer . . . But even then, IMHO, sooneror later they will have problems because the shellwill deteriorate. Perhaps replacing them regularly would help. GT saysthe stars replace theirs every five years.

Dearest Beth:

I was talking about silicone. I'm not sure about saline because I have done very little research on this subject. Dr. Blais is an expert in these devices and he would know. I do know that some saline breast implants do deflate but where does the fluid go! I'm glad that your implants were intact. I have never heard of cysts forming between the capsule and the implant...this is awful.

Please get well soon....love always....Lea
