Breast Implant Illness - Excerpt from: Dr. Veronique Desaulniers, better known as Dr. V, https://breastcancerconqueror.com/blog/page/4/
If you are considering getting breast implants or have them already and are wondering why you feel sick a lot more, there is more information available now that hasn’t been told to women before. Every woman’s situation and decisions are unique. This information may help you to make the most informed decisions for your body.

Every woman needs to know a few basic things about her breasts:
1. Let your b***s breathe! Wearing a sweaty bra too long can cause fungal and yeast infections, rashes and blisters.
2. Avoid underwire and tight bras! Besides being uncomfortable, they restrict lymphatic drainage and impede energy flow of your body’s meridians. The bra and underwear areas are two of the most porous areas of a woman’s body. Heat, moisture and sweat may allow chemicals to seep into your skin.
3. Big breasts are not needed to feel like a woman or beautiful.
4. Mastectomy surgery does not remove breast cancer stem cells.
5. Wearing a bra does not prevent your breasts from sagging.

Breast Implant Illness (BII)
Dr. Veronique Desaulniers, of BreastCancerConqueror.com states “Saline and silicone breast implants are like toxic soups in your body. Despite what many doctors say, saline implants are just as dangerous as silicone gel. This is because saline implants are not sealed airtight, nor are the filing valves 100% secure. Because of this, bodily fluids, yeast, molds, and bacteria can enter the implant, leading to various health issues.

Except for certain medical situations and conditions, foreign objects should not be placed in your body. This is because your immune system will attack foreign invaders, sending your body into a highly inflamed state. An autoimmune reaction is when the body attacks something within itself, and autoimmune illnesses are major signs of BII. Some of the more common ones include lupus, Lyme disease, rheumatoid arthritis, scleroderma, and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.

Many people also don’t realize that breast implants have a warranty of about ten years and may need to be removed or replaced. The longer they remain in the body, the greater the risk of complications developing. A study of 99,993 women with breast implants (56% silicone) found some fascinating insights:
Silicone implants were associated with higher rates of Sjögren’s syndrome, melanoma, scleroderma, rheumatoid arthritis, capsular contracture, and stillbirth.
Saline implants were more likely to rupture in the short term—sending their contents (including mold, yeast, plastic, bacteria, etc.) throughout your body.”
Most doctors and researchers also state that they do not know enough about the harm that breast implants can cause since the study of BII is so new. In 2021, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) finally added a label with a boxed warning and a patient checklist that includes risks and will inform people that implants are not medical devices that will last a lifetime. As of 2023, there is no official test to detect breast implant illness.”

Take care of your breasts, yearly structural and functional imaging is what's needed for prevention. Don't wait for the test of detection, aka, the mammogram. Prevention is key! Message me for more information.

Have you heard of the Mammography Quality Standards Act (MQSA 1992)?
Recently there was an update:
One of the key updates to regulations under the MQSA requires facilities to provide information to patients regarding the density of their breasts. Approximately half of women over the age of 40 in the U.S. have dense breast tissue, a description of its appearance on a mammogram. Dense breast tissue can make cancers more difficult to detect on a mammogram. Additionally, dense breasts have been identified as a risk factor for developing breast cancer. The amendments finalized today provide specific language explaining how breast density can influence the accuracy of mammography. They recommend patients with dense breasts talk to their health care provider about breast density, risks for breast cancer and their individual situation.

Unfortunately today, most doctors do not give women with dense breasts options other than mammograms. There are options, breast thermography, breast ultrasound (which is typically done after a questionable mammogram), and breast MRI.
Know your breasts, know your options. Message me if you want to know more.

Great short on autism by Dr. John Whitcomb.
Autism has increased in prevalence over the last forty years by some counts as much as 10 fold. That may be due to better diagnosis and improved testing methodologies, but no one denies the massive impact the illness has on families, not to mention the economic impact on society of lost wages and lifetime disability. In 1930, autism was diagnosed in 1/100,000 children. Now,in Scotland, one in 36 children are being diagnosed. Genetic diseases do not behave in this fashion. Genetic diseases remain relatively constant in given populations. This speaks to environmental pressure and an altered ecosystem. And if it is environmental, and we can understand the root causes of it, we can fix it. That is what this series is about.

The CDC states on its website that we don't know the causes of autism. That may technically be true, we don't know those initial triggers of overwhelming oxidative stress, but we do know the pathophysiology, and we have the tools to interrupt that pathophysiology and reverse it. Probably the sooner we learn how to diagnose this catastrophic affliction, and intercede with our therapies, the better it will be for all involved. Rather than quibble about what "sets it off", which we may not be able to determine, we should be focusing on how to make the interventions that catch it and reverse it.
Dayan Goodenowe, Ph.D. is leading the charge to run a clinical trial of interventions that use commonly available foods, supplements, and targeted plasmalogen therapies to accomplish this goal. And I'm all in.

The summary of the next few newsletters will be: a) Show how mitochondrial stress and failure to process NADH results in the overproduction of reactive oxygen species. b). Those reactive oxygen species go on to damage membranes of neurons which results in the activation of microglia, the cells that clean up damage. c). Activation of microglia results in demyelination in the brain, which results in all the symptoms of autism. d). A steady state of ongoing activation of microglia, demyelination and reactive oxygen species keeps the involved brain damaged and unable to return to its normal state. We can intercede in each of those steps.
And it is important to note that "cure" involves two steps. The physiology and inflammation can be normalized and reversed. Remyelination of the brain and rebuilding lost development takes more time. So cure is not an instantaneous event of a single intervention but rather a patient process.

www.What will Work for me. I'm optimistic. I believe this is a Nobel Prize in Medicine, waiting to be demonstrated. The several hundred physicians who have signed on to Dr. Goodenowe's research institute program have already demonstrated multiple anecdotal examples of dramatic improvement that I have personally witnessed. What I am fascinated by is learning the root physiology that has a common overlap with many other brain diseases. Long COVID, for example, is likely the same process going on in a more mature brain that doesn't devolve into frank autism or quite complete disability, but shares the steady state of not being able to return to normal, and improves and repairs with the same interventions. As does manic depressive disease, multiple sclerosis.... We can all start by keep our own brains healthier by avoiding sugar, making sure we have B vitamins and reducing our consumption of omega-6, pro-inflammatory fats (canola, corn, soybean oil)
