Glamorous journalist reveals health scare after replacing her breast implants

A journalist has revealed that she contracted a bacterial infection during a procedure to replace her silicone breast implants.

Mariana Martins, from Brazil, shared a video on her Instagram on Tuesday explaining that she had surgery in March and began to feel a burning discomfort in the days following the procedure.

After meeting with the surgeon, the former Record Goiás and TV Anhanguera reporter found out she had fluid that had built under a scar and had a tissue sent to a lab for further examination.

The results of the test were provided in late June on the eve of her wedding and showed that she had contracted a mycobacteria infection.

Now, Martins has had to postpone her wedding – and she said she is ‘fighting,’ but doesn’t know how long it will take for her infection to be cured.

‘My infectious disease specialist was categorical in saying that I contracted it during surgery, but he couldn’t say whether it was on the prosthesis or where it was contaminated,’ Martins said in the video.

‘He was categorical: ‘Before surgery you didn’t have it, you contracted it during surgery,’ she added.

Martins followed the advice of her doctor and had surgery to remove the implants July 10.

The months of uncertainty leading up to the operation and weeks that had followed have built up a level of anguish, she revealed.

Mariana Martins said it will take almost  'a year and a half with antibiotics' to fully recover after after having her breast implants removed due to the bacteria that built up following a procedure in March to replace the silicone in the breasts

‘It is God who is supporting me and giving me strength. There have been many moments of pain and uncertainty,’ Martins said.

‘I don’t really know what this infection is. It is an infection that takes a long time to cure,’ she added. 

‘Treatment can take up to a year and a half with antibiotics. Until now, I don’t know how long this treatment will last.’

The bacteria can cause tuberculosis and leprosy. Some of the symptoms are weight loss, cough, weakness or fatigue, fevers and chill and lack of appetite.

‘I’m fighting, I’m going to get through this. I want to think that everything will work out in my marriage and my health will be 100% restored,’ said Martins, who will be celebrating her wedding in August.
