Hi there everyone,

I'm sorry if I take a while to reply to your messages of support but I don't very often log on but when I do I feel such gratitude to those that have taken the time to encourage me that I am doing the right thing, It is appreciated much more than you know! My intuition has been telling me for a while now that my illness probably relates to my implants but I suppose I didn't really want to accept it. I feel I have been forced to make a choice as my condition has got worse & I know what must be done for my health. It's not long now until my operation & I've even thought about having an alternative safer implant such as allergan. I wasn't even an A cup before implants, I was severely under-developed & didn't even need 2 wear a bra. I am afraid of returning like that again as I was always so self-concious before, I honestly felt like a man in a woman's body if you know what I mean! The implants have definitely been a blessing to me in many ways obviously apart from the illness & it is for this reason only that I am having them removed. If I hadn't of had any health problems I would definitely be keeping them. I wonder if any of you are aware of any safer alternative to improve breast size? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated as it is so far.

Best wishes

Lynn.
