I am asking for some information

[Guest guest]

My name is Christy and I got my saline implants in 1999. I am

currently 31, and I am having many medical problems. My doctor thinks

that I am crazy and even went so far as to test me for bi-polar

disorder. (His testing turned out negative) I have problems sleeping,

anxiety all the time, numb arms, rib cage cramps, memory loss, like

Patty said in her description about mis using words, my breasts

really hurt all the time, I feel so tired and now my thyroid gland

swells so big, I cannot swallow. I have very tiny bone frame and i

have put on 35 lbs since my implants were put in and I cannot lose

it. I am starving myself and forcing myself to exercise because my

doctor does not believe me and thinks that I am just lazy. I don't

know what to do. I know now that I have to get these things out, but

I am so scared that I have done irrepurable damage to myself. To make

things worse, I have developed some really strange allergies and

vertigo. Recently my eyes have been unable to tolerate sunlight, i

have to draw the curtains because the light is too much. I need a

good explant doctor who won't make me look horrible and a regular

doctor who will take me seriously. I feel that women are not taken

seriously about anything in the medical world and that men in this

field just stand around chalking our comments up to hysteria and

hypocondria. Please anyone, tell me what happened after you got your

implants out, did your weight, health, symptoms and appearance

improve? I was a size 34C, implanted to a 36C, they are enlarging on

their own and now I am a 38D and I am not sure why. I am very scared

and distraught. I just made a huge jump and am in the middle of an RN

program. My email is Cjfaulkner1@...
