Close to the Chest with Kristin and Christine

The podcast, first season, is in eight parts hosted by two women on a mission to find out how to financially, legally, physically and emotionally overcome Breast Implant Illness (B.I.I.). The hosts are close friends, Kristin Nobles and Christine Torres, who joined together in their efforts to learn the facts key to navigating the disease from diagnosis and treatment to detox. The show provides an inside look with doctors, lawyers, patients and advocates offering their expert tips that are key to saving valuable time, money and ultimately lives. Each episode is divided into segments highlighting the treatment process and featuring the latest updates and news regarding B.I.I. symptoms, health issues, and the breast implant recalls. The hope is that no matter what point you are in the process you can listen and learn, and also connect with the associated resources.
