i heard a couple stories where the patients who hated thier implants said the implants made it hard for them to breathe or gave them anxiety attacks. i plan on going up a cup size and that is one of my fears that it will affect my breathing.

Answer: Long Term Breathing Problems NOT Normal After Augmentation
Initially after a breast augmentation, some women will describe a tight feeling in their chest, and an inability to take a deep breath. However, this is usually only in the initial healing phase, and goes away within the first week or so. As the tissues relax, the sensation goes away. The implants would have to be extremely large to cause any sort of pressure effect on your breathing and chest wall mechanics. I hope this helps.

Answer: Implants do not cause breathing problems
Breast implants would have to be truly enormous - larger than any that are manufactured - to cause the kind of problems you describe. People with anxiety disorders may misattribute the cause of their problem, but there is no physical reason for breast implants causing breathing difficulty.
