Other tests were done, and it was also discovered that the former Bachelorette's white blood cell count was abnormally high, which could be a result of her body's negative reaction to the implants. "My body can’t heal. My body is in fight mode constantly. It’s all making sense."

Crawley admitted that though she "loved" her implants while she had them, she loves her "wellbeing" more, and this is the decision she has to make for the good of her overall health.

"I’m just so incredibly thankful to all the people who are in my life that support me," the Bachelor runner-up ended her Instagram post, "not only in my peaks but in the valleys as well."
