TOXIC PIP IMPLANTS


We know toxic PIP implants are making us sick! So we put a HEALTH SURVEY on our web page.  

If you have been affected by PIP implants please fill it in. We are NOT asking for any personal data, just more evidence!

We hope we are all going to be fine five and ten years on ... but we need to begin collecting data to be sure of the care and treatment we need NOW and may need in the FUTURE.  
It,s worth noting an American FDA safety update (August 2011) relies on studies of just 44 women with silicone breast implants ... so if we can get at least 44 women to respond ... we will have our own VALID safety data!! 

BIG thanx in advance!

PIP Breast Implants - Give Evidence


Yesterday (23/7/2012) Pip Action Campaigners presented the Department of Health with its grave concerns over the Keogh Final Expert Group Report (18/6), which has a direct impact on the care and treatment of British Women.

We have been asked and we have agreed to submit evidence of our concerns to the Department of Health, in full, on Friday of this week.


This means that if YOU have concerns about the Keogh Report and you are a patient, Dr, healthcare professional or provider.  Now is the time to act.


We ask everyone in Britain, concerned about the intolerable situation women with PIP breast implants are forced to face, JOIN this action and address their concerns in an Open Letter to the Department of Health to arrive no later than 14:00hrs Friday 27th July 2012.

WARNING: HEALTH HAZARD



We have forced a Department Of Health meeting on Monday 23 July 2012 to challenge the veracity of the Keogh Expert Group Final Report, which we intend to prove to be incomplete and inadequate! 


We believe this is a genuinely important opportunity to raise very serious concerns with the Minister for Public Health Anne Milton, who has facilitated this meeting for us, and which we hope will the basis of URGENT changes to current policy.

This is a link to the document that is guiding our care and treatment.

WARNING: This document is hazardous to our health

One good French Lawyer...


French Avocat, Laurent Gaudon is, one of 180 Lawyers, making a case in France against Jean Claude Mas and the PIP company.

In March 2010, after twenty years of amassing a fortune by producing adulterated breast implants, Jean-Claude Mas was forced to close his company Poly Implant Prosthesis (PIP). 

Released from Bail on Monday 29th Ocober 2012 pending trial in 2013, Mas made fraudulent claims about the qualities of the product, produced false advertising and endangered the lives of others.  Indicted on dozens of charges, ranging from poisoning, aggravated deception through tax evasion and abuse of social goods, Mas has managed to be declared insolvent, to hide and protect his fortune. He believes he can hide behind this supposed insolvency to avoid compensating his victims.

Some 4,600 victims are already involved in the class action, including British women.

For many women no legal help is available, in Britain the Government has deemed this a civil rather than criminal issue.  Mas was arrested by Interpol, there has been a police investigation in France where the legal process is already set in motion.  

We want JUSTICE...

Crimes Against Women


British PiP Victims have sustained a devastating blow, by the Keogh Expert Group Final Report published 18/06/2012.
We are horrified that this inadequate, pseudo-scientific document will be the basis of care and treatment in Britain.
We were at the Health Committee debate yesterday, and even though we have submitted complex documents including results of independent toxicological tests on explanted PiP implants as evidence, we believe our Government’s overriding concerns are costs not care.

We want Britain to be urgently brought into line with other European, US and International standards.
The role of the British Regulator the MHRA and the British Government urgently needs to be investigated.  We have already uncovered shocking inconsistencies in our own research, and we ask now that the British PiP Scandal be uncovered as the next horrifying chapter of this dreadful crime against women.
