Questions about Explant Progress

[Guest guest]

Ladies,

I am in the process of having the tests done that Dr. Kolb requires for explants. I haven't set a date as of yet for a consultation.

My husband was wondering if those of you that have been explanted could send me more details. What type of implants did you have? Were they leaking? How long did you have them? How long have you been sick and the symptoms? Are you feeling better physically now that you have been explanted? How long has it taken for you to get your health back? Is their anyone that now feels worse than before (even after the initial healing process)?

He is being very support about this but wants to read more of your stories.

Thank you I really appreciate your responses.
