Augmentation 3.5 weeks ago. Noticed blood in urine about a week ago, along with occasional flu like symptoms that went away after about 3 days. Yesterday right breast started to tense up (think charlie horse that stays all day!) and now is almost double the size of left. Surgeon says he's never seen this and wants to go in and wash out the area with a solution and see what's inside. He doesn't feel blood in urine is related. I read that with muscular trauma this can be normal. Is it??!!?
