Nat Alexander, 26, spent six years in agony and, despite medics saying she was healthy, her implants were 'slowly killing her'.
The implants caused the whole left side of her face and body to go numb.
She says she was sometimes in so much pain, it was 'unbearable to the point of suicide.'
Nat, from Brisbane, Australia, underwent surgery in June of this year to remove them - and now says: "Now, my breasts may be tiny, but they are mine.
"They aren't poisoning me any more."
She added: "I feel like the plastic surgeons sold me a dream and I bought it. The price I paid was my health.
"I was hospitalised when the whole left side of my face and body went numb and practically lost capacity to use this side of my body.
"I saw every expert under the sun - doctors, naturopaths, specialists, therapists and so many more.
"I had blood drawn, a spinal tap, tests ran, countless dollars spent, all to be told I was perfectly healthy but I knew something was not right.
"Every-day I woke up feeling like I had a bad hangover, with extreme fatigue, brain fog, difficulty concentrating and severe anxiety that left me housebound, which then led to panic attacks.
"The list of what I was feeling was endless - I began to have burning and tingling sensations in my extremities, acid reflux, muscle weaknesses, alongside chronic headaches and constant joint pain.
"I constantly experienced nausea, insomnia, memory loss, food intolerances, inflammation and the list goes on.
"I was neither too emotional, nor too dramatic, I was sick and I knew it.
"I felt like I was in constant flight or fight mode and as the years went on, the symptoms got worse and things were becoming unbearable to the point that I was contemplating suicide.
"If this was the quality of life I was going to have for the rest of my life then I didn't want it."
