People must understand that these chemicals reach the brain and just wreak havoc! I should know as I experienced it. I had my implants removed and I would never even consider committing suicide now. You can read my story at toxicbreastimplants.org | Your own narrative gives an explanation more likely to explain your issues then the presence of breast implants. There has never been either a statistical trend or any plausible mechanism demonstrated for the assertion of implants causing systemic disease.
It's also interesting that when you extrapolate the expected suicide rate with the risk factors that breast augmentation patients bring to the table (or at least brought in the groups being reported on from the mid 1960'2 to the late 1980's) that the observed suicide rate may be 50% less then predicted.
This study does little more then tell us that groups with higher psychopathology will predictably demonstrate higher suicide rates. Breast augmentation is really a marker for increased risk of that, rather then as a direct proxy for suicide. Blogging on the web at Plastic Surgery 101 |
