Asked By:decboobs00 in Apple Valley, CA

I am considering get breast implants, but I have myasthenia gravis. I had my thymus glad removed 10+ yrs ago. Since then I have been able to live a normal life--I even work night shift! I am low doses of prednisone and a normal dose cellcept. My neuro-ophthalmologist stated he couldn't guarantee is was safe or unsafe. Thoughts?
