I had surgery on 27 October 2016. On 29 October I started seeing red hives appear on my legs then stomach back now my chest and face have them.. the doctor gave me a steroid to take for 6 days which ended up being 21 pills I got to day 3 and it spreaded more so now I went to the ER they gave me that steroid but a stronger dose and asked me could I possibly be allergic to my implants
