For the last moth I been having a lot of trouble breathing and now I can bearly see, I been feeling dizzy, without energy, memory loss, vertigo, etc. I been a summited to different blood work exams, X-Rays, CAT, CT, I’ve seen cardiologist, endocrinologist, etc. And they don’t seem to find anything. I am getting worst with time and I don’t know what to do any more. I feel some pinching in both of my breast that I am thinking it can be my breast implants.
Answer: Prob not the implants Contrary to what you might read on the Internet nowadays, it is probably not your implants. You’ve had an initial work up and they haven’t been able to find anything but there are still some very rare strange things out there. I’ve had a patient have Lymes disease undiagnosed for a long time. You may want to see a rheumatologist as well. But those of us in the plastic surgery community think it is pretty unlikely that it would be your implants.

Answer: Allergic Reaction To Implants! Thanks for your question!based upon my experience of doing thousands of breast augmentation surgeries, I HIGHLY doubt that you are having an allergic reaction to your silicone implants: they are one of the most biologically inert (non allergic, non reactive) substances on earth, which is the reason why silicone was chosen as the material to fill gel implants (that & the fact that they are soft) in the first place. I’d recommend, at 4 month’s post op, to see an allergist. Best of luck to you!

Answer: Allergic to implants? Thank you for your question. It sounds like you have a lot going on over the last month. It is unlikely to be due to your implants since you have had them for 4 months and your symptoms have only been for the last month.. I would see an allergist for some of your symptom and I would also schedule a follow up to discuss with your plastic surgeon to discuss the pinching you are feeling. Best Wishes!
