Guest guest Posted March 16, 2007 Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 I think I have a problem but I'm not sure. I went for my breast ultrasound and mammagrams today. My left breast - no problem. My right breast - looks like I had a ps from the Flintstones do my implantation. It is full of rocks. There is quite a big lump below the nipple it is about 9mm long and about 3mm wide. In addition to that my right breast on the mammogram looks all white and like it's expanded. Apparently it's full of fluid surrounded by a capsule. I'm scared but am keeping the faith. I feel my purpose here is to be a trailblazer for Canadian women and that's what I intend to be. We don't have Drs. Kolb or Huang etc. I want to find that surgeon here. Things happen for a reason. Please pray for me. I don't think it's cancer but I've had it before. Been there, done that, beat it, don't want to go down that road again. Thank you for listening and pray for an early explantation date for me. In the meantime, here's me and a friend who's going to help me do the trailblazing. Her name is . Love and prayers to all, Traci ________________________________________________________________________________\ ____ Bored stiff? Loosen up...

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2007 Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 Traci, Maybe it sounds simplistic . .. but it does work! . . . When those fears come up, find something else to do - quick! . . . So much of what we worry about turns out to be needless . . . Save your energy doing the things you CAN do . . . learn about a healthy diet and how to detox . . . That will keep you busy for a while! Sometimes our body has to scream at us before we pay attention . . . Most of the women who've been here eventually come to the point where they see their implant experience as a blessing (that they would rather not have received), but one that has taught them many valuable lessons they wouldn't have learned otherwise.

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2007 Report Share Posted March 17, 2007 Traci ~ I am so happy to have been able to be of help, even tho you have the implants, you can rest at ease that it is just the implants. The lump may be a fibrocystic lump, a lymph node or a milk duct clogged with silicone sludge....They will see when they clean you up. God Bless you girl, and my thoughts and prayers are with you ! !

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2007 Report Share Posted March 17, 2007 Rogene ~ That would be fine, if you look at the right side of the pic, the top of the implant, look closely it is the ruptured side showing the gel extrusion going up as it blew out the capsule........during mammogram. The left side is very well defined. You can see it better in person, but sure, it can go in.......Love and hugs ~ DAOL now offers free email to everyone.

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 Hi , Looks like a great crop of mold you've got there. Please do not try to use any of it again as the mold will just continue in your new batches. Clean everything with hot water and perhaps a drop of Chlorox and rinse really well. Get a new starter, there is a folder in the FILES section called Kombucha for FREE and folks on this list share Kombucha starts for just the cost of shipping. Just let us know your general area not street address....someone will probably be quite willing to share with you. This happens sometimes and it is a rough start but it is educational and you can certainly go on to make outstanding Kombucha tea once you get your new set up going. If there are any potted plants near where you make your KT it might be best to move them away as they can harbor molds, also some people feel that smoking near Kombucha can promote mold. Once in awhile the mold spores are in the tea or sugar that is used and that is why it should be boiled.

Guest guest Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 , your pictures appear to show a glass lid covering your jar. While this would probably not cause the mold, it could interfere with the brewing process, as the tea needs to breathe. Just cover your jar with a coffee filter or two thickness of paper towel held in place with a rubber band. Better luck with consecutive brews!
