WOW! Inspiring. Thansk so much for sharing your story. What a road to recovery.Yes, I agree with you and Pam, it IS about taking that step. Someone recently told me they are called “Hero Moments”.That moment when you decide to really step up to the plate. Well, we all need to be true heros for OURSELVES. Especially in this implant issue. Too often we are told we are crazy or not told anything at all!

My heart raced as I read your story. I too had SO MANY of those same symptoms. The Fibro I still have as part of the Lupus. It’s incredible we have all gone for so long without a diagnosis.
Not ONE of my Dr.’s ever suggested I have my implants out. When I read about it in 1992, I went into total denial. I didn’t want to have another surgery. But the removal of my ruptured implants 10 years later was the key to geting my life and health back.
Brovo to you for taking that first step, then job, then swim, then diet change!!! Incredible.
Commitment to self, so important. Thanks for sharing with us to help us all see the “light”.

It isn’t always easy to draw that line, and to commit to the work it takes to begin the progression. . .But, the rewards are so valuable.
