I have lupus. Can I still have breast implants?

Asked By:leahelizabeth123 in Dallas, TX

For someone with a previous lupus diagnosis but all testing negative now (only flared and attacked in pregnancy as stage 4 lupus nephritis), would you be concerned doing breast implants? I am definitely wanting to do saline for many reasons, but should I be concerned about any potential issues with non-active lupus? I have made it through a LBL, massive lipo, hystorectomy and multiple other surgeries still on the 200mg prednisone without any issues.
