6 months ago I had my implants replaced and about two months after the procedure my arms have been feeling progressively weaker from time to time. We replaced the implants with the same size and it seemed pretty straight forward but now my arms are shaking . I have had CT and MRI of my brain to rule out anything serious and it has come back clean. My plastic surgeon does not think it is related to the procedure but I cannot figure out how to fix this and don’t know what to do.
