Guest guest Posted January 16, 2006 Report Posted January 16, 2006 HI! I got my implants in the year 1994 a year after I finished high school. Between that year and now My implants have ruptured 4 times including now.I'm 30 years old now. It's been a couple of years where I would feel my heart beating fast. It didn't hint me that maybe it might be the implants. It really great to have this sopport group. Because I personally dont't know anyone that has implants. Now I know I have a lot of symtons that a lot of women have. So now I 'm going to have the saline implants removed without a lift or anything for now. Maybe in a couple of years I will have a lift.But now I just want them out. I was wondering, I read many e-mail that women write about wearing a sports bra. Is that for women that have a lift or something. I was also wondering besides wearing pradded bras I seen on t.v. a long time ago they have this rubber breast looking this that you put in your bra. I 'm not sure what they are made of. But do you know wear you can get them. I live in ventura, california area. Thank You, Jackie bluejaybliss <bluejaybliss@...> wrote: Jackie, I will keep you in my prayers. Are you re-implanting? Has your heart pounding/scare been going on very long? It's such a comfort sharing with others that understand our symptoms. I have not felt alone since I jioned the support group. For 19 yrs feeling like I was the only one. until the last couple of years having a computer and finding support groups as this one. This one though addresses my Saline filled experience. Thanks for sharing and your prayers, a Quote
Guest guest Posted January 16, 2006 Report Posted January 16, 2006 Hi Jackie, I had to wear a sports bra for two weeks and I didn't have a lift. I think it's to compress the area to avoid swelling, but I think there are other reasons that I'm not aware of. I know the bra inserts are still available - I thought I read they were made of silicone, though - and I don't know if that stuff is absorbed through the skin or not.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2006 Report Posted January 17, 2006 Jackie, Before you decide on what to wear after explant, decide what you want done during explant. Make sure your doctor is going to take them out properly. Rogene stresses this to everyone new. Make sure you doctor takes out the implants "en-bloc" meaning everything, including the scar capsule is removed. Your health and recovery will depend on that. Your scar capsule may contain many of the toxins the implant is releasing. Some doctors don't like to take them out. You have found sisters here, Calderon <jackiejack21@...> wrote: HI!

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2006 Report Posted January 17, 2006 Jackie, The sports bra is temporary - to hold you in place 24/7 until healing is well underway. . . to let the scar tissue help life sagging tissue. The length of time to wear it would probably be more dependent on how much breast tissue one has left and how much sagging is possible. Someone whose skin is very elastic may not need to wear it very long, where someone left with loose tissue will want to wear it longer. To fill out your clothes, anything is fair game . . . you can wear a padded bra over the sports bra, or insert pads inside it. . . . Just don't put anything made out of silicone NEXT to the skin. . . If you're going to use a silicone insert, wrap it with a piece of fabric that you can launder easily. Hugs, Rogene Quote
