Towards the bottom, the lady talks about problems and then talks about things we chatted about when she interviewed me.

"Like others, they say they were shocked and saddened by Kuleba's death. But, they say, it does not reflect on the safety of the surgery. The teen simply had a bad reaction to anesthesia, they believe.

"It could have happened when she was having her wisdom teeth out," Jessica Angst said.

As for women who report severe health problems, Jessica Angst says it is likely they had unrealistic expectations about the surgery and then blame the implants for a host of unrelated ills.

Women who have devoted their lives to trying to convince others that the surgery is not safe are accustomed to such reactions.

Gretchen Cannon blames her implants for debilitating health problems she suffered almost immediately after she had silicone implants to get back the breasts she lost when intense exercising transformed her from a 34C to AA.

She couldn't concentrate at work. She had no short-term memory. She was constantly tired. Her vision was blurry. She started exhibiting symptoms of lupus and multiple sclerosis.

Nearly a year and three operations later, the 27-year-old California woman said she is almost back to full strength. Ironically, although the implants are out, Cannon's breasts have returned to their pre-exercise size.

She has created a Web site - myimplantstory.com - to warn other women about breast implants."
