Lucy Opens Up ABout Getting Implants Removed

She shared that she has been carrying those “toxic bags” for more than a decade and having them removed definitely made her feel better. “I forgot what it was like to have a full lung of air. It’s amazing. I can breathe. The surgery went absolutely fine. They are out. I’m as flat as a pancake. I look awful but I feel good. When I woke up in recovery, the first thing I did was panic because I could breathe. I could take in a massive breath and I thought they were trying to give me too much oxygen – I panicked.“

Not being able to breathe, I was just shocked with how much air my lungs could expand after my implants were taken off my rib cage . My explant was because of many other health problems… not because I couldn’t breathe ?
