It’s Breast Implant Illness Awareness Day and I’m coming through with a 6 year Explant update:
Wow! 6 years. I remember like yesterday the pain and suffering those implants put me through. The darkness they brought into my everyday life. The unanswered questions. The sense of being misunderstood and helpless. I had lost my identity and my health to a pair of chemically toxic, saline filled, silicone shelled ticking time bombs. I was struggling so hard to get through my daily routines, to care for my 1 year old, to be a wife, a business owner and to feel myself again.
Finding the page “Breast Implant Illness by Nicole” was god sent- A literal blessing sent from heaven. I had prayed so hard for so long and finally stumbled across what would change my life forever, finally an ANSWER to what healthcare professionals made me believe was a mystery illness or better yet - “all in my head”.
Within 2 weeks of interacting with those woman in that FB group I made decision to Explant. Finding Dr. Joshua Lampert was another blessing since he’s the only surgeon who would promise a proper Total Capsulectomy or EnBloc removal which is required for ensure proper healing. He also heard me. He believed there was a high possibility of the implants causing all my bizarre symptoms and validated my concerns. Within 1 week after our 45 min consultation, I was IMPLANT FREE.
Fast forward to 6 years and here I am. Living my absolute best life, still healing but 90% better and feeling more like myself than I can ever remember. Better yet, feeling better than myself, a rebirth. 38 out of 40+ symptoms are gone. Some neurological ones still linger but I’ll take it any day.
No thanks to conventional medicine and all the gratitude to MYSELF- for trusting my own intuition, for not giving up and for killing my ego. I am proud of me so today I celebrate ME and all the other powerful, beautiful woman who have chosen themselves.
