What if your breast implants were silently fueling your fatigue, anxiety, rashes, or brain fog—and no one believed you? In this powerful episode, Dr. Linda Bluestein speaks with renowned breast surgeon Dr. Eva Nagy who’s become a global voice for patients suffering from Breast Implant Illness (BII).
Together, they uncover the overlooked signs of mast cell activation, connective tissue involvement, immune dysregulation, and the invisible damage that can linger—even when scans look normal. Dr. Nagy breaks down the myths about “safe” implants, explains how BII can show up years—or hours—after surgery, and why removal must be done in a very specific way to truly heal.
This episode exposes the real science behind BII, the staggering rate of gaslighting, and why so many hypermobile and chronically ill women are caught in this hidden epidemic.
