Jodie Marsh is scared her boobs may explode — as she could have toxic breast implants.The Essex model says she is worried she has had her assets boosted with PIP implants, which have been at the centre of a health scare.The French implants are made with sub-standard silicone gel, increasing the risk that they could rupture dangerously.Bodybuilder Jodie said: "I don't know if I have got PIP implants and I am really worried about it."Nobody has been in touch with me from the hospital but I want to contact them to double check."The 40,000 British women with PIP implants do not need to have them routinely removed, the Government has said.But it said the five per cent of patients who had their implants on the NHS as part of breast reconstruction surgery will be able to have them removed and replaced if they are concerned and after detailed consultation with their doctor.The Government said it expects private clinics to offer the same deal to anxious women who also wish to have their implants removed.France's own health ministry has advised women with the implants produced by now-bankrupt firm Poly Implant Prothese to have them taken out.Jodie, 32, said she is angry that costly surgeries — like hers — are being performed with inferior materials and patients are being kept in the dark.She said: "It's almost like they're happily taking your money but there is no actual real care about the patient."As the people paying for implants, we don't know what we're getting and whether it's safe or not. Most of us don't even ask the questions because we trust our surgeons."She added: "This is the last thing I need considering the horror story I have already had with my boob job – I had an open wound for a year after the op as my skin would not heal."I had to change the dressings every day and was in such discomfort I couldn't work – I basically sat at home depressed for a year."I love my boobs but I really can't imagine anything worse than having them done again. I'm just praying I'm not one of the women affected."
