My husband says I should print this out and carry it around so I can show it to people who ask why I am not interested in using implants for reconstruction.

I should clarify that I know people who have implants who have had good experiences and no issues and who are happy with their choice. Given my history of autoimmune issues, though, this information would only make me more cautious.
