A doctor shares why they decided to publicly discuss their breast implant removal and its connection to biotoxin illness, overcoming initial reluctance about going public with a personal medical story.
But the more and more I thought about it I just felt this like really strong conviction to share it because I was like I know this is going to help people and I know me being vulnerable even though it felt really personal. I mean I asked my husband, he was like no, it aligns with everything you do. You're sharing your story, you're helping others. But I was like, oh God, like, you know, I'm going to announce that I'm getting my tits out when people don't even know I have implants because I'm pretty conservative. Most people wouldn't even know. And so I just want to share. The reason I did not get them out before is I always kind of knew about it like this whole biotoxin thing and breast implants and I talked to patients about it especially with autoimmune issues. But for me I started to feel better after I got sick so I didn't necessarily think it was fully that.
