The Essex ex-glamour girl, 33, took her frame to dizzying heights: "I initially had a boob job because they were getting saggier as I got older. I'd lie on my back and they'd disappear. To me they looked hideous. But it turned into a nightmare."
Marsh's skin reportedly refused to heal: "When I woke up, they were so swollen. The first dressing was taken off after a week or so - that's when I saw that I wasn't healing."
Jodie's condition went from bad to worse. The stitches running up the underside of her breast to her nipple tore. "As the stitches started popping out of my skin, there was no skin to hold the incision together.
"My boobs looked like they were exploding. It was so painful. There was green pus coming out of my boobs and they constantly bled."
She said: "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."
Marsh told the magazine her relationships with men are affected, and she is too embarrassed to take her top off in front of them.
Marsh was remorseful of the plastic surgery: "I wish I'd never had them done. People should realise that every boob job has the potential to become a horror story."
