Mesh Implant Illness: Summary
Dr. Sharon Surita, a certified Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner and environmental engineer who has had experience battling chronic illness due to complications from a hernia mesh implant,shares her own battle with complications from a hernia mesh implant and what she has learned about the potential danger associated with these synthetic implants. She explains how her health deteriorated after the implant procedure which led her to extensively research and join support groups to understand her situation. Additionally, she discusses how she found relief through removal surgery and functional medicine interventions.
She goes ahead to discuss the need for patients to advocate for themselves before, during, and after such surgeries. By understanding the complications and informing themselves about tissue-based repairs or specialist surgeons as alternatives, patients can make better decisions.

She also suggests following a holistic approach to health and a daily routine of diet management, exercise, adequate sleep, and rest, maintaining hydration, and eating organic food as much as possible.

She shares her newfound mission to help others experiencing chronic symptoms from synthetic implants, using her personal experience and discipline in both fields to provide support and a roadmap to recovery for her clients.
