One year after implants was diagnosed with hashimotos thyroiditis autoimmune disease and have progressively worsened just like he's saying over 20 years with every problem implants cause. Im done with implants and getting surgery soon. I am so grateful this education is coming out!
I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, autoimmune disease, 1 year after implants too. For 2 years I have atopic dermatitis, which is an autoimmune reaction too, plus I experience more than 90% of all symptoms associated with BII.
This is so much great information. I've had my implants since I was 30 yrs old, I'm 48 now and was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. I have saved to finally get mine removed. But I'm so sad my significant other doesn't support me in this decision. I'm so glad you covered all these topics. Thank you.
my husband doesn’t support my decision either, that’s the most heartbreaking part for me because he is more worried about the visual outcome more than my wellbeing 😢
I just had my implants taken out three days ago, September 30, 2024 here at home in Beverly Hills best decision I ever made. There was a host of issues going on a capsulated and got stuck and then a huge bubble formed on the bottom of my breast fortunately, ultrasound and mammogram showed there was no cancer. Inflammation is leaving. Had rash on my breast. Thank God for explant surgery.
I am beyond excited to get mine removed. I finally started putting things together and I've had a swollen lymph node in my armpit for several years diagnosed as nothing worrisome on ultrasound, I wake with bags under my eyes, and have had alot more noticeable fluid retention not to mention gaining weight on my very petite frame and I've done all the "right" things for a lifetime. Can't wait to feel better and have them out!!! Thanks for the informative podcast
@PalinaZ I am SO HAPPY 😊 I didn't even realize how many issues they caused. I lost the extra weight I had been unable to budge, my eyes are not swollen and bags are minimal, my lymph nodes in armpits are not swollen. And best of all I'm smaller chested feel so free!!! Back to how I want to feel. Best decision EVER. Recovery for me was a breeze. Oh and my thyroid returned to normal too.
Thank You so much for this information. I had a consultation THIS MORNING to have my implants removed. I have become "allergic" to everything it seems... Love yall's podcast ❤
Jesus, I love the sauna. Especially the K-town ones, they are no joke in the best way. I can't believe the FDA hasn't tested breast implants in that capacity. Wow.
Ive heard most of these issues are from textured implants which a lot of surgeons dont like to use anymore. I've also heard some newer implants dont have these issues nearly as much as the implants from 5-10+ yrs ago. 🤷🏼♀️
@@nerissamartinez3669 darn it. I'm so sorry! Wish there was a way to guarantee no side affects.. then I'd get some! I hope you're able to resolve your symptoms! 🧡
Not true. Every implant will have side effect sooner or later. It’s a foreign object. I’ve been experiencing symptoms a while ago and didn’t know it was my implants. I have decided to remove them not worth my health
Excellent info. Explanted 3 weeks ago and extreme symptoms went away right away. Had no idea the sauna would make it worse and I had recently been using one. Wonder about the jacuzzi now. I assume there is no data on that.
I always wondered about it … those infrared waves going into the breast implant releasing those toxins! Now I have confirmation. Even the surgeon who explanted me didn’t have an answer to this
Hi I don't mean intrude but did you have an en bloc or total capsulectomy I'm suffering from Breast implant illness I want to make sure I'm getting the right procedures done.
Can BII cause neuropathy pain ? Through out the body . I currently suffer with chronic migraines, light & sound sensitivity, fibromyalgia, pudendal neuralgia symptoms siatica symptoms but noting is show on MRI scans that would cause all my symptoms. All tests I get come back normal. I've the allergen textured implants just at the minute cant afford to get them out
Yes it's awful I'm so sorry you too are suffering. I feel the same trapped in my own . How long do you have yours? I've mine 14 years worse mistake of my life.
I did labs a month prior to explant and the only thing that showed in my good work was low vitamin D. I did labs again, now almost 3 years post explant and now my numbers are out of whack. It now shows inflammation, hypothyroidism, and elevated numbers in other areas. Why is that when I already expended? I have t done anything to detox and I’m thinking that could be it?
@@janicechilders4885 hey there. I have some tips and tricks for after explant on my UA-cam if you want to check them out I have a playlist so they are easy to find 🌸
I think my sister did too, she's struggling and had second surgery and IV antibiotics maybe 5 days and taking oral she's so ill so sad for her, surgery was July 16
My sister had explant because she had symptoms but she got infection and has second surgery, she is struggling so much, she did IV antibiotics about 5 days during second surgery but now is doing oral antibiotics, she's so unwell, I thought they would continue IV antibiotics
Is it possible that it’s pressured against our chest ? I took out my implants in 2021 and right when I woke up I felt as if I could breath like really breath. I had all of those symptoms the itchy rashes came and that was the last straw for me. . I’m gonna put implants back in but smaller and I guess it’s me playing lab rat. I’m shocked nobody is doing like some sort of study on this. My primary docs had to think I was crazy til they admitted they heard it could be because of the pressure / weight of the implants. We did a walk test and my oxygen level dropped to 87 (that’s when people faint ) with implants … when implants came out oxygen levels were normal while walking. But women with big natural breast seem to have these symptoms also… But I’m gonna play lab rat 😂
Insurance should cover explant surgery.
They do ❤❤ I am in the beginning stages of the process 🥹😇🙏🏽 So grateful!!

How do you know it’s linked to your implants??? Out of interest

A very educacional video. My implants are 12 years Old. I have many BII symptomps ann I'm going to take them out.
Thank you for sharing this.

Mine only have 4 years.... I have alot of symptoms. The worse is the chest pain and back pain.
@@nerissamartinez3669 darn it. I'm so sorry! Wish there was a way to guarantee no side affects.. then I'd get some! I hope you're able to resolve your symptoms! 🧡
@adib.72 I have surgery the next week. The dr was able to move my surgery early. I removing the implants.
@@nerissamartinez3669 I hope everything goes smoothly and little pain recovering!!

I have saline implants for 3 years now luckily this far I’ve had no issues but this is very scary definitely eye opening

@@daisycampos9007 as I have been studying it, DO EN BLOC!!
I have had years suffering recurring shingles ( 4 times a year approx) after implants - had them 16 years - being removed in a couple of weeks
How is it different from other foreign objects going into people body
What about face fillers??? Do you think they can cause similar problems?.? I do…
I’m wondering the same thing because I have lip filler
Nothing...fake in the body is good...your body will reject it..and try to heal around it push it out...natural healing process...makes sense.

I’m dealing with the same. I can’t afford to remove them. I feel trapped in my body. Praying for you too 🙏
Yes it's awful I'm so sorry you too are suffering. I feel the same trapped in my own . How long do you have yours? I've mine 14 years worse mistake of my life.
Thank you for your prayers. I pray for you also ,🙏

Would love to know if surgery clamps do this
I got an infection from my drains! I have a playlist on my channel for any of my breasties 💞 5 months post explant now 🎉
Balancing getting my explants is VERY hard!!😭I am totally flat! It’s only been three weeks. I look ugly in my clothes. Thanks for sharing.
@@janicechilders4885 hey there. I have some tips and tricks for after explant on my UA-cam if you want to check them out I have a playlist so they are easy to find 🌸
Your body will create a little fat after 6 months they start looking small but natural.
I think my sister did too, she's struggling and had second surgery and IV antibiotics maybe 5 days and taking oral she's so ill so sad for her, surgery was July 16
How do I get a hold of Candice?
What is “biofilm” ?
Bacteria the same type of film that grows on rotten meat
I can’t find the Khalil Rafati episode! Where is it on UA-cam?!
When u say swelling is that all over ? I have horrible belly fat grow over each year while one breast is getting encapsulated 😢
I gain 15 pounds in 4 years. I was 130 all my life before cancer and inplants.
My sister had explant because she had symptoms but she got infection and has second surgery, she is struggling so much, she did IV antibiotics about 5 days during second surgery but now is doing oral antibiotics, she's so unwell, I thought they would continue IV antibiotics

We did a walk test and my oxygen level dropped to 87 (that’s when people faint ) with implants … when implants came out oxygen levels were normal while walking.
But women with big natural breast seem to have these symptoms also…
But I’m gonna play lab rat 😂
😂😂 "Lab rat ". I'm trying to get them but my family aren't very supportive so I'm here watching videos they're recommending.
When will you get them put back in ? And why did you wait ?
I did that .... I changed to small one still have pain. This next week taking out for good.
🙌
