I was diagnosed with Raynauds which affected my nipples severely during breastfeeding. Can a patient with this syndrome be able to undergo breast surgery?

Answer: Raynaud's syndrome In my experience, Raynaud's is due to methyl ethyl ketone (and similar chemicals) depleting arginine and thereby depleting nitric oxide. The shell of the implant leaks methyl ethyl ketone, so it is likely to cause the same problem unless you can detox the chemical (with electrolysis foot and hand baths) and replace the arginine (I prefer XExtreme NO to do this). I have many patients who have recovered from Raynaud's with this treatment.
