Saying that something "COULD" happen, does NOT mean that it "WILL" happen, and this should be stated after each such use of the word "COULD". You "COULD" get run over crossing the road, this does not MEAN that you "WILL" get run over crossing the road. You "COULD" get hit by lightening during a thunderstorm, this does NOT mean that you "WILL" get struck by lightening during a thunderstorm. It's about time that the press actually put things into perspective, BEFORE they go shooting their collective mouths off. The PUBLIC should also learn to exercise what is commonly known as "Common Sense", although of late "Common sense" is rapidly becoming one of the LEAST common of all senses.

Just about everything on the face of the planet has been linked to suicide at one time or another. NO I am NOT detracting from the emotions that suicidal people have that can trigger there actions, but to say that breast implants have been linked to suicides is not only stupid, it is also tantamount to medical malpractice, if it is not IMMEDIATELY followed by a FULL AND COMPLETE explanation of that statement. Suicidal people are extremely susceptible to these kinds of gross statements as it is without unqualified people shooting their collective mouths off. female3 on "Breast implants linked with suicide in study" http://www.cherrypeak.com/forum/topic/breast-implants-linked-with-suicide-in-study#post-234 Fri, 25 Jul 2008 09:03:38 +0000 female3 234@http://www.cherrypeak.com/forum/ By Maggie Fox, Health and Science Editor WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Women who get cosmetic breast implants are nearly three times as likely to commit suicide as other women, U.S. researchers reported on Wednesday. The study, published in the Annals of Plastic Surgery, reinforces several others that have shown women who have breast enlargements have higher suicide risks. Loren Lipworth of the Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Tennessee and colleagues followed up on 3,527 Swedish women who had cosmetic breast implant surgery between 1965 and 1993. They looked at death certificates to analyze causes of death among women with breast implants. Only 24 of the women had committed suicide after an average of 19 years, but this worked out to triple the risk compared to the average population, they reported. Doctors who perform cosmetic breast surgery may want to monitor patients closely or screen them for suicide risk, Lipworth said. "The increased risk of suicide was not apparent until 10 years after implantation," the researchers wrote. Lipworth said she believes that some women who get implants may have psychiatric problems to start with, perhaps linked with lower self-esteem or body image disorders. "I think we don't even know how big of a problem it is because we cannot even pinpoint what proportion of women have psychiatric disorders," Lipworth said in a telephone interview. "There could be a whole lot of different disorders." Women with breast implants also had a tripled risk of death from alcohol and drug use. "Thus, at least 38 deaths (22 percent of all deaths) in this implant cohort were associated with suicide, psychological disorders and/or drug and alcohol abuse/dependence," the researchers wrote.
