Can breast implants cause high blood pressure?

September 27, 2017
Asked By:imocs in Tustin, California

I am a very healthy person. I eat healthy and exercise 5 days a week. I have had breast implants for 2.5 years. I never had a problem with high blood pressure before, but a few months after I had my implants put in I had a physical with my primary doctor and had very high blood pressure. Ever since then, I have struggled with having constant high blood pressure. It is about 170/90 every time I check it now. I have gotten so many tests and we can't find the cause for it. Could it be the implants?
