Update on Stephanie Kuleba’s Death

I wanted to do an update on Stephanie Kuleba’s death. It is highlighted at the link below -

Her autopsy confirmed that she died from Malignant hyperthermia, a rare genetic disease that can be triggered by anesthesia. I thought this was an interesting statement - “The intense attention on Kuleba’s case brought more awareness about risks of anesthesia, though it’s generally considered safe. ” Hello!? I think the intense attention should have brought more awareness about risks of plastic surgery in general and what people should know they are really risking when they go under the knife for cosmetic reasons. I too, had the inverted nipple correction and breast symmetry corrections Stephanie was in for. Why don’t they say that by “breast symmetry” she was getting implants? Because they don’t want to cause a spark with the surgeons or FDA? I don’t know - but my implants are out now, in order to save my life and I do have the inverted nipple correction, but after going through all the hell of being sick that I went through and knowing about Stephanie’s hidden condition, I would never go back and do it again. It wasn’t worth it & I would much rather be happy with what I was born with vs. risking my life to look more “normal.”
