After having multiple mammograms I have dense breasts tissue so I go every 6 months and my legs and feet are swelled my skin is sensitive I am fatigued although I'm a lot older. I'm also noticing big differences with each of them and not sure what I have or if it's related?
Answer: Contact your surgeon's office Did you receive an implant card, also known as a medical device ID card? The card should have the serial numbers of your implants. You can also contact your surgeon's office as they should have that information in your surgical records. You’ll be able to find out the brand, size, and type based on the serial number associated with your implants. However, if you’ve noticed a recent change in size you’ll most likely need to get your implants replaced.

Answer: Implant information Each implant has a serial number associated with it. That information should have been shared with you at the time of surgery as well as your surgeon including it in your medical records. If you are noticing differences in your implants you will want to meet with your surgeon or another board certified plastic surgeon near you for an exam. She/He can rule out complications such as deflation or capsular contracture.

Answer: Implants Since your implants are 23 years old, your medical records may no longer exist. You should have kept for implant formation card. However, if your surgeon is still in practice, he/she may have kept an implant log book and they could look for your name. The log book may not be the same as the one in 2002, so your information may still not exist. I would also go to your medical doctor for an examination and complete blood work. You might have some kidney issues, or something else, not related to implants.
