My Name is Mary and I'm from NY. I had implants put in 10 years ago and have become I'll since that time. I have symptoms of Chronic Fatigue syndrome, Fibromyalgia, MS, Lupus, I have become very sensitive and have allergies to just about everything. I can't even wear eye shadow anymore.

I am very tired a lot of the time. I go through periods when I am very achy and pain killers do not help. I have balance problems, I can be very absent minded and weak. I had become very sick around 5 years ago, just picking up an object was a challenge to me, I would have to go and lay back down. My mind just went blank and I couldn't work for a while. I'm not as bad now, but I still feel tired and sick a lot. I am always catching colds and viruses. My immune system just doesn't seem to work very well anymore.

I finally went to the Doctor and insisted on getting an MRI done to see if my breast implants were okay or not. Well, sure enough one is leaking. Now they will need to be removed. I'm hoping that my health will regain itself someday, but It probably won't be for a long time. I really regret ever getting them put in. It's better to be happy with yourself the way that you are. You may not look perfect, but just be happy that you're healthy, that's the most important thing. Unfortunately, I had to learn the hard way.
