A short, first-person testimonial about discovering and investigating breast implant illness. The speaker recounts persistent symptoms that they had previously dismissed, their engagement with functional medicine approaches (diet, supplements, elimination strategies), and ultimately deciding to seek a consultation (via Zoom) to explore breast implant illness as a cause.
That's when I was led into looking into breast implant illness. And ultimately all of the symptoms that I had been experiencing for so long, that I had dismissed for so long.
Were blaring right in front of me that, that this was an avenue that I needed to explore, which is ultimately what led me to scheduling that first consultation with you that was over. Zoom. It's not the answer that you really want. Um, but I knew probably in my heart for a couple of years that there was something else wrong. I was very involved in functional medicine and chasing all of these symptoms and I lived a pretty healthy life to feel the way that I did. And I explored so many different options of different functional medicine, pathways, supplements, doing all the things, diet, eliminating, you know, other things that could make me feel the way I did and nothing was really working. And I didn't accept the answer that that's just how it is.
