About 12 days ago I woke up thinking that I had slept wrong because my collar bone, chest, and neck were very sore. I realized this morning while laying on my back that my left breast was off to the side and upon getting up it was hanging lower on my chest. It is pulling on my chest and neck muscles causing discomfort and lifting makes it worse. There is a depression above the implant. Wearing a bra that holds it up where it should be helps somewhat. I have had my saline implants for 17 years.
