I can tell that you must be a PS. You are so wrong that doctors don't tell women that implants last a lifetime. I was told that mine would last a lifetime back in 1996. I also have a support forum that is just over a year old. We have 800 members. I can tell you without a doubt that 95% of the women were told that their breast implants would last a lifetime. So you are very misinformed. VERY!

We also have new members that sign up and have saline implants that were implanted a year ago. Most are in shock that they are sick and think that the only thing that could be causing the illness is the implants since that is when their life changed for them. They too were told that the implants would last a lifetime. Not all but the majority. These are board certified plastic surgeons.

Once they have their implants removed, they start feeling so much better.

Implants are dangerous no doubt about it. After all the FDA has lifted the ban on silicone gel saying that they are 'reasonably safe'. They also have to be replaced after 10 years and an MRI must be done every 2 years. Who in hell would have implants knowing that information? This should have been disclosed to women years ago not just back in November of '05. I think the same kind of restrictions should be put on saline filled.

I really think all should be taken off the market but after seeing that the FDA lifted the ban with those kind of restrictions, I know this will never happen. They are a huge money maker for people like you.

If you don't believe me that there are so many women ill, check out Breast Implant Support Forum. 800 members in less than a year. Think of all the women that are ill that have no idea or the ladies that don't get on a computer and search for a support group? They continue to believe their doctor. Much like I did. Each doctor I saw told me that saline implants don't make you ill. WRONG!
