Asked By:lblack5255 in North Carolina, NC

I have had weird health issues for a long time now and I know they're related to implants. But now they are out, do I need to take any antifungals or other given the yellowing? These are 16 year old saline implants. One was calcified capsule (I believe it's the one that is yellow).
