Ba done 4/5 it went good & Ive been healing fine. Friday 5/9 woke up and my bra was wet. my left breast incision was leaking a good bit of watery clearish yellow fluid through a tiny spot. It looked like maybe a stitch opened. Saw oncall doc he pushed a qtip in hole which opened it bigger & sent me home on antibiotics & told me to let it drain-said the implant wasn’t exposed & I had superficial pocket of fluid. Today my DR told me implant is exposed & has to come out
