[ applause ] >> it's show time! whoo! >> audience: whoa! >> thank you so much for tuning in, thank you all for joining us here in the studio. i don't wanna waste time. our first topic has been all over the news lately, one every woman should hear about. if you are considering permanent birth control, you want to watch this . >> thousands of women from around the country are complaining of the same mysterious symptoms and consumer advocate, erin brockovich wants to help them. >> the pain was too much to bear. >> for months, tonya had mystery symptoms. >> excruciating pelvic pain, i
9:01 am
was hunched over and holding my stomach >> she decided to make a responsible choice, permanent contraception. >> i went to planned parenthood. and they offered me essure. >> essure claims to be more effective than tying your tubes and it's surgery free. a pair of coils are inserted ito the falopenian tube and tissue grows around the coils and seals the tubes. >> clearly these things did something to me, and i knew it >> consumer advocate erin brockovich says the amount of e-mails she's received from women like lopez, complaining about essure has raised a red flag. >> i started a website and was overwhelmed how quickly it built from, you know, 50 to a couple of hundred to thousands of stories of women experiencing the same problems! >> you know erin brockovich
9:02 am

[ applause ] >> royalty. [ applause ] >> so, you are known as a true consumer advocate, trying to make sure the world is a safer place. tell us about this new cause you are championing. >> well, normally what happens with me, you know, is, i track a lot of incoming information from the consumer. and i had gotten one e-mail from a woman about essure, and problems she was having. and it was actually kinda horrific in my opinion. and then, the next day, i had a couple more, the next day a couple more. it's usually a red flag when i get one, 5, then 10, 15, and 20. so, we got on, there was an essure facebook. these women are terrific, 2300 strong. and we created an essure
9:03 am
website where women could come and tell their stories. they felt like they didn't have a place to report, they didn't know what to do. and it just blossomed very, very quickly to thousands of stories of women who have had the procedure, the complications they're having. so we gave them that voice. >> are you finding that when women have the complaints that there are doctors who put the devices in, are they receptive to the complaints and are they trying to help the women as opposed to dealing with the company that makes it? >> a bit of both. in some instances, the doctors are not sure what to do because once the device is in it's difficult to get it out so they call the manufacture and ask representatives what they should do. there are reports when the doctors remove them, they're breaking. it started with, you know, many women complaining of severe pelvic pain. and it's now gone to where the device is moving in the body. they're having body scanse, they cannot find -- scans.
9:04 am
they cannot find them in the body, they're perforating the organs and, they're putting babies in danger. >> it's important, when you are talking about contraception, this of course being permanent contraception, this is something that a woman should be given a range of options, and they need to be given the risks and benefits and alternatives to the options that their doctor is suggesting. >> yes, and i could see from my perspective, i sent a couple of ladis to get -- ladies to get the essure, and they felt it was a good option for them. what's happening is, it's quick. they go into the office, they come out. they go back for a couple of tests, the hysteroscopy, making sure the have scarred down. i haven't had this problem, but reading the women's stories touched my heart and made me think, we may need to reevaluate this. i can say, anytime, ladies and gentlemen, if you are getting
9:05 am
an implant in the body there's a process that can happen where your body rejects the implant. so these implanted devices are made out of nickel, if you have a nickel allergy, this could cause havoc. do more research anytime you are having any type of procedure, particularly an implanted one, situations like this can occur. >> iowa wanted to hear -- we wanted to hear from women who had this procedure done. we invited tonya, and stephanie joins us on the phone. to share their differing experiences. tonya, we heard from you in the taped piece, and you have had what you consider an adverse reaction. >> i have, it's been a horrible experience. i have had severe pelvic pain, sharp stabbing pains in my side, really, really heavy bleeding, blood clots. dizziness. and i was never told this by the doctors. >> and you never had any of those problems before? >> never. >> i have since had a hysterectomy.
9:06 am
and i have none of the problems anymore. everything's gone. >> the device has been removed? >> yes. >> so, clearly, tonya, you know, what you have been through, it's tough to are h. but in fairness, stephanie, you had a very different experience, you have been happy with essure . >> yes, i have had no issues whatsoever. quick, easy, it's like i didn't even have it. >> you know, i always, we always look at both sides of the situation, there are gonna be people who have a good result, i am thankful for them, but we need on look at those having an adverse reaction, so the next woman is more educated. >> absolutely. >> she's not rentered defense -- rendered defenseless or helpless she can make a better choice. >> an educated decision. >> absolutely.

9:12 am
bacteria can travel quickly, shutting down the liver and kidneys. according to health officials the bacteria - resistant to antibiotics - has been linked to 10 deaths this year in florida alone. henry's family is now fighting for signs to be posted near infected areas to prevent further tragedy. >> we are joined by henry's wife, patty and his daughter, sheila. can you tell us what happened that day that your husband and your dad was -- loved the water. spent his life in the water. but something different happened that day. >> we went crabbing three weeks ago. we came home that night, everything seemed to be fine, and in the morning he woke up with this lesion on his ankle. we thought it was a spider bite. and so we just decided to watch it that day. and finally, it just kept getting worse. and so we finally took him to the emergency room. they realized almost immediately what it was.
9:13 am
and they admitted him to the icu. and just as the -- almost as minutes went by you could literally watch this growing on him. those same lesions that you see there were getting bigger, and more of them. [ sobbing ] thank you. >> so, water that all three of you have been in thousands of times. >> thousands of times. >> and had you ever heard of this particular bacteria? >> never. >> never. >> and we're all born and raised in florida, that was what was so devastating. he had done it a million times. we have all done it. she was there with him that day in the same water. >> if there's a blessing here it's that it's not so well-known, it's relatively rare, but important to talk about. and we have someone to help us better understand this bacteria on the phone, dr.
9:14 am
brad spellberg an infectious disease specialist. and doctor spellberg, tell us about this bacteria. >> sure, it's in the same family of bacteria that causes cholera. but it's actually a very different type of infection. it's not an intestinal infection, it can be acquired via the intestines by eating undercooked or raw shellfish particularly raw oysters or can be acquired through an open cut or wound. but it likes to live in warm saltwater and when it gets into the blood stream, there's about a 50% chance of fatality, despite antibiotics. it's not antibiotic resistant, it's just that the infection progresses so rapidly in the blood stream. it's very unusual for an infection to progress this rapidly unless there's some issue like an immune issue or too much iron in the body. so, most people who get exposed to the bacteria are
9:15 am
not gonna have this kind of a problem. >> are there certain parts of the country - obviously florida - where if people have immune compromised states, where they should stay out of the water? >> i think that if people know that they have liver problems, if their immune system is not right or if they have iron overload, one should be cautious with open wounds or cuts around saltwater. but, the infection is still relatively rare. florida had 80-90 million visitors, or has about that number on an annual basis and there's probably 30 or so cases in florida; 100 or so cases in the united states in an average year. is absolutely perfect, dr. spellberg. be aware but don't be afraid. and, um, i want to thank you for sharing those thoughts with us. before we go to the break, jim, give us an example of how the bacteria can live in thuars and easily be spir -- waters and easily be stirred
9:16 am
up. >> it lives in the estary, salt water mix, you walk around and disrupt the bacteria in the sediment and eventually it gets released into the water. you can see it there. >> if you have an open wound, and you are immunocompromised it can get into the wound and get into the blood stream. i want you to feel like coming on the show today served a purpose. he thought he had a spider bite. every few hours someone comes into the e.r. with chief complaint: spider bite. most complaints are not spider bites. you think it's a spider bite and then it's rapidly changing. and things are going on that are not explained by a spider bite, go to the e.r. an hour ago! because in those cases the earlier you get antibiotics, the more likely the outcome. whether it's a spider bite, a unique bacteria, or something else. don't wait, we hope and pray

we got to dinner, met our parents there, and 15 minutes later, bam. that's when the boat hit the rock. here it is, like this. and it went boom, like that. >> the lights flashed off and then on again. the ship was listing on one side, and then it was pandamonium. >> were getting trampled. >> it was complete and utter panic and chaos. >> then you heard terrifying screams of people. [ screaming ] and i remember saying "oh, my gosh i can't die this way" and at that point we looked to dean who had a lot of navy experience, he said to me, georgia, this is it. we just all started praying. we didn't want one of us to die before the other. so i kept saying "god make this quick, make it come all afast, get it overwith". >> when my husband told me their ship had sunk i was pretty hysterical. i was crying and upset. i was fearing that my whole family had died. >> so, finally there was
9:48 am
another fellow there that said, we gotta get down to the mid part of the ship, because he saw life boats there. >> we were at the bottom of the ship and there was a life boat there, it was a 15 foot jump. we all had to do it and we all made it, we are fortunate that none of us actually got hurt. >> as a fam plea we feel -- family, we feel strongly there needs to be changes in the cruise lin industry. >> you can get caught up in the glory and glamour, but at the end of the day everyone needs to be safe on a cruise ship; and right now, people are not. >> we are joined by dean, cindy, debbie, and georgia. they are here on terra firma safe and sound.

and this is one of those experiences that you get through it, and then there comes a point in time where you realize, wow, that was something else; we wanna share our story. >> absolutely. we were left to die with no one helping us. >> so the crew was not helpful? >> there was no one helping us. and to live through 5 and-a-half hours of trying to save your life and almost dying 4 times, it really does a number on you. >> what was the most traumatic part for you all? >> i think the most traumatic part was witnessing so many people not helping others; watching children being pushed out of the way for adults to get those life boats. it was one of the most upsetting things i ever experienced. >> lucy you made your way to the boat, and hung on to railings to prevent fall intog the water. >> if you hadn't been in good physical shape, could you have made it?
9:50 am
>> absolutely not. you have to be in really good physical shape. >> i imagine you are pulling yourself up. >> i will tell you if someone showed me a picture and said, this is what you will be able to do to get off of this ship, i would have taken a million dollar bet that i couldn't do it. but the lesson tells us, 5 and-a-half hours of trying to survive, you can do it. if we as a family can do that, people can do that. and i think that's a lesson learned. so i think what we are trying to impart to people through the book is the fact that, there are tips, things that we learned from experience, that we want to share. simple techniques like, when we were trapped, one of the third times we were trapped underneath, we had to climb up a ladder that appeared and we thought we would be rescued when we got out there, we didn't know if they would see it us, we took saliva from our mouths, and we put it on the emergency lights so it would light up in the water. we want people to know, if you
