Guest guest Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 , I know that you must be going through a very difficult time with all of this. The decision to have implants to replace your own breasts is one that many women have made, however, the implants are not safe and they can cause severe illness. The fact that you already have MS leads me to tell you that implants can cause MS like symptoms, and any illness that you already have WILL become worse with the foreign object in your body. There are no " safe " implants, even though some women seem to do ok with them in. You might want to reconsider having any implants at all, and just try using a water filled bra to give yourself some shape. I know that is hard to hear, but after having implants for 11 years, I wouldn't wish them on anyone! Best wishes, > I had breast cancer and a double mastectomy three months ago and have had the expanders (made with silicone, filled with saline) in since then. I am trying to decide what type of implant I will have placed in a few months. I was under the impression that saline was much safer than the silicone implants. I also have MS, so I am even more afraid of anything leaking. Any suggestions? > Thanks anybody, Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
