Dr. Robert Whitfield describes symptoms some women report after breast implant surgery: fatigue, joint pain, dry eyes, brain fog, heat sensitivity, and general malaise. These appear months after recovery seems complete, yet doctors rarely take them seriously.
I want to begin with a problem that medicine has not handled well. And so a woman who has breast implants placed, for a period of time she feels absolutely fine. I'm sure everything, for the most part in the beginning, is fine. After the early recovery process is over, then she may notice changes. She becomes, um, not frankly exhausted, but notices less energy. Her joints also may bother her. Her eyes may feel dry. That's a really common symptom. She cannot necessarily think clearly. She may forget names. She may feel hot sometimes. Or maybe she, she might just feel unwell.
