comments: They only cause health concerns or probloems. My first implants
ruptured and the second, replacements (saline) have particles
left from the original silicone. Would never, never recommend
to anyone.

comments: I just wanted to say that at age 16 I got silicone breast implants. Because of the estrogen I had to take for my Turner's Syndrome, they got bigger. Just 3 weeks ago, at age 28 I had smaller saline implants put in, when removed one implant had ruptured a little silicone had leeked out, but remained inert in the scar tissue. I have no health problems. My implants have not caused ANY ill effects. Yes there are genuine risks, yes things can and at times do go wrong. But I must say the claims that breast implants were the cause of your health decline is an out and out lie. Women sick, were sick or would have gotten sick with or WITHOUT the implants. Are you asking me to really believe that these implants cause your heart problems? your lupus? your nerve damage and MS? come on! get real, these problems would have happened no matter what, blame your genetics for that. It may have been the surgery that triggered the problems (as a body is vulnerable after surgery), but it could have been a hysterectomy, or any surgery. You seem to forget that silicone implants have been used far before breast implants. Fake joints, heart valves, etc. are made of silicone and still are with no ill effects. I truly am sorry for your health problems, but they are yours and yours alone. So if you want to present a total reality ask me to tell my story and put it up on your site with picture of how well I am doing.

comments: I WAS THINKING OF GETTING BREAST IMPLANTS I THOUGHT IT WOULD HELP MY SELF ESTEEM BUT AFTER SEEING PICTURES OF THE SIDE EFFECTS I DECIDE NOT TO GO THROUGH WITH THE SURGERY. THANK YOU FOR THE TRUTH ANNETTE GARCIA

comments: I think that women shouldn't get breast implants. If a guy doesn't like us for who we are then I guess their not worth it. I have an appointment with a plastic surgeon, but after veiwing the images...I'm definately not going to do it. My husband wants me to get them. My mother found out she has breast cancer and had the right breast removed. So I guess you could say I could be worse off. At least I still have both breasts.

comments: To anyone considering implants to boost their self-esteem: think about what having ugly rashes all over your body or being constantly afraid you'll poop your pants does for your sense of self-confidence. I've had silicone implants for 20 years, and been sick for 14 of them. My ANA is between 1:650 and 1:2500, I have severe irritable bowel syndrome (daily cramps and diarrhea for 14 yrs.now), interstitial cystitis, adhesions in my left eye, lichen planus and other rashes and chronic fatigue. (Oh yeah, and depression, surprise, surprise.) I suffered for 7 years before I even thought of connecting these illnesses to my implants or heard about the class action lawsuit. Now this has become a political disease, with doctors telling me my implants are harmless, the insurance company refusing to pay for their removal and the media branding us as greedy or hysterical. I got sick shortly after finally earning my college degree, and thought I'd have a good career. Now I can barely work 15 hours a week. Can't have much of a social life when you're tired all the time and a prisoner of the bathroom. My breasts aren't even pretty--they're as hard and compacted as two baseballs under the skin.

comments: Women should feel comfortable with the way they were created instead of what Society wants, societies have been known to be wrong in the past. I am a cancer survivor, and I can add to this a survivor of a ruptured implant, with autoimmune disorder, seizure disorder, and the list goes on. If I can say anything to women...look and see what is inside, not what you think the world would like on the ourside.

comments: 24 Years old,I considered them two years ago, I also did my home work in finding out the good and bad about them. I spoke to women that had them and cancled my surgery a day before they were to be done! Thank God that I listened to the truth, the truth that these are harmful, dangerious, a waste of good money and just down right stupid!! I was 22 Years old and really unsure about my apperance, the fact is, I am ok to me...I divorced my husband at the time and read books about low self esteem, I am still wearing my b size cup bra and I am better than ok, I love myself!!

comments: I have breast implants and I have allot of problems and from what i have read, sounds like the implants are the reason. I believe that the left implant is ruptured.

comments: I have been sick for over six years with flulike symptoms that mimic CFS. This has all started when my son hit my chest and my hubby and I heard a pop on my left breast. the next following days my lungs filled up with some type of fluid, then the CFS symptoms began. I have not been able to work because of pain in my left side, all symptoms have become progressively worse. I have no monies left to take them out, the Dr's I have talked to want to charge more money to take them out than replace them!!! Pathetic society we now live in! Mentor is walking out of this thing smelling like a rose-they have only given $1,000.00 to claiments!!!!

comments = I definately DON'T WANT implants after viewing this site! Why should we hurt our bodies to feel that we are worthy of a mans attention?!! It is not worth it to me anymore. The reason that I wanted them to begin with is because after having my daughter and breastfeeding for 2 years, my breasts are so gross to me. I wanted to have something on my chest that wasn't just loose skin! But I don't want this to happen to me!!! Heck NO!! Thank you for making me aware of the dangers!! I was just about ready to call a Plastic surgeon!!

comments = I have been considering getting breast implants in the near future until I saw this page. I have a set of silicone "enhancers" that fit in my bra that work well, but I have always wanted to be bigger than I am without having to worry about wearing a bra to look that way. Now I realize that those are the best thing to have as those terrifying pictures could be of me if I had those implants. Thank you so much for helping me see the truth.

I am a pretty girl, I am 25. My breasts are cute; normal with one alittle ackward then the other, but still and all - cute. I would say my disappointment is only they are small. (The goat hanging nipple-view you get leaning over.) BUT YA KNOW WHAT....it's normal. Why can't we except ourselves? Why do we listen to men? They don't have to live with the consequences. Men think with one head, let's face it girls...I for one am jealous of this fade' for big boobs...wish I had them, my own to play with...and of course be an eye pleaser! BUT I read too much (not even). I read a few of your articles enlightening me on the risks. I just called my doctor's answering machine & canceled my pre-set up surgery. All I lost was the unrefundable $150. Something tells me I did the right thing. My health, my future to be married & have kids is stronger. I can except the way I am. Someone will love me. Sometimes our loved ones can hurt us - mainly our feelings, but I'm not gonna hurt myself by allowing a greedy plastic surgeon to make money off of my expense. - Hurt my body. I have to please myself. The horror stories I have read do not over power the lifetime disaster or death. If you do this because Hollywood people do it...THINK!.. they are all wealthier - bigger strings to pull! Even $10 grand would be pennies to them, but their surgeon would love them, etc. OR I guess consider your profession all out provocative.. a stripper, sex dancer... or SLUT for the BUCK! Because your gonna need all that money you made shaking your butt to remove PART of your Disease...and also have money to support the rest of your life...and now your not so pretty, so is that guy you were with, still around? He loved you for more than just your boobs, right? All I'm saying is I've done stupid things in life. and even though I want them..I still want to be me and for a long time! I guess you were really Good! Either way, I think we all faulter on the MAN's Ego...we now want to look the way they expect (unnatural).

comments = Before coming across your webpage, I was really SURE that I was going to have silicon breast implants (b/c I thought they were safer). I am 26, married and have an extremely low self-concept due to my tiny breast size (34A). I was positively going to get implants no matter what, but my husband keeps telling me, "You don't need them...they're not healthy...I love YOU not your breasts." I was getting really sick of hearing these things, b/c afterall, it wasn't about him, it was about me and how I felt in my clothes and about how I looked. Well, I want to thank you and your readers b/c the info and comments that were stated made me re-think what my motives are...is it for ME or society, is it worth getting SICK over them. A big red flag waved in front of my face when I read on you webpage that breast implants aren't even FDA approved...I had no idea. Thank you for the information...you (Literally) changed my mind - no implants for me.

comments = In 1985I had breast cancer. The Drs. all made implants sound so wounderful. As a result, they little by little ruined my quality of life. The allergies came first. Little by little my health failed. I'm living with the results, But never feel good. They should have been outlawed years ago. Implants has been a criminal injustis to women. I was one that was happy with my body just the way it was. I really believed that I would just look normal. Now I look anything but. Two years ago I had silicone dug from inside my body, and not all of it could be retrieved. Here I set waiting for something else to go wrong. Society itself has todays women so insecure about their own selves, and bodies, some go and have themselves rearranged to be someone they are not. I am totally anti silicone. I have become sickened by what women believe their bodies should or should not look like. The opinions have come from men in the first place. Be satisfied with what the Creator has given you, not what man wants you to have.

I wish my mom had never gotten breast implants. She is sick all the time and I have a lack of NK cells so I have to be careful about viruses and such. I also have too many ANA cells and they are banded and speckled. My mom had implants put in 6 months before she got pregnant with me. I love my mom and I'm glad she is my mother but I wish she did not have implants. I also wish all her great friends who are also sick from implants had not gotten implants. It is really bad that so many people are sick because women have been made to feel they should look like BarBie Dolls. I gave all my BarBies away when I was 10 years old because I felt BarBie had made my mom sick, I am 12 now.

comments: WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE ANSWER A QUESTION FOR ME....... I HAVE A FRIEND WHO HAS HAD HER IMPLANTS REMOVED. SHE IS IN A LAWSUIT AND HAS BEEN SINCE THE BEGINNING. AT FIRST HER LAWYER TOLD HER SHE WOULD RECEIVE 10 MILLION DOLLARS, THEN IT WENT TO 5 MILLION, THEN 2 MILLION, NOW IT IS DOWN TO 1 MILLION. HE ASSURES HER THAT SHE WILL GET EVERY PENNY BECAUSE SHE IS A SPECIAL GROUP OF PEOPLE WHO ARE THE ONES WHO HAVE SUFFERD THE MOST. I THINK SHE IS IN THIS FOR THE MONEY. SHE IS VERY ACTIVE AND SEEMS HEALTHY. WHAT DETERMINES HOW MUCH MONEY YOU RECEIVE. I THOUGHT THERE WAS A GLOBAL SETTLEMENT AND THERE MIGHT BE A CAP. WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE ADVISE................

comments: personally, i am 25 and i have had my implants since i was 17. i have experienced
no complications what so ever. i feel that if you have researched the whole process properly, and you are prepared to deal with any of the possible outcomes, i say go for it. i have never felt so self confident, and proud of my body since i had my surgery done. in fact, in nov. of 99, this year, i plan on getting them done again to a bigger size; not for my husband, but strictly for me.....

comments: I've always thought they were a waste of money, but was never really against them until I saw your web site. I knew about complications, but this is ridiculouse. I can't see how or why anyone would want to risk going through what obviously a lot of women have experienced because of implants. Looking at your page proves, money isn't the issue in the lonf run, it's your life, your physical and mental appearance/emotions. I would personaly rather stick to my 32B than put my life and my future children in jeapordy! Great site! I hope you can show other like you showed me, the truth. My sister is considering implants and first thing tomorrow, June 23, 1999, i am going to show her this site and hopefully change her mind. Thanx again.

comments: I would like to ask you a question that you can hopefully answer soon. What I would like to know is if your Doctor (that gives you the implants) is supposed to give you any type of shot before and/or after your surgery to prevent any type of difficulties. If you can answer this for me or give me any other resources to check out, it will be greatly appreciated.

comments: They may be unsafe. I don"t think its right to have something implanted that cannot be monitored. For instance, how can you know that the implants have ruptured or slowly leaking silcone into your body?
comments: BREAST IMPLANTS CAUSED ME TO HAVE A DIBILITATING CONDITION. I LOST MY HOME, MY JOB, MY LIFE. I THINK THAT IT'S A SHAME THAT OUR MEDICAL SOCIETY IS COVERING UP FOR IMPLANT COMPANIES BECAUSE THEY'RE GETTING MONEY FOR RESEARCH FOR OTHER THINGS!!
