I know a big sign of detecting breast cancer is noticing changeds in the breast - contours, indents, etc. After implant removal I know those things are possible just from removing the implants, but what about after they've healed up? Does going through an implant removal surgery and the breast changes that occur, new scar tissue that forms with a capsulectomy, etc., then make it more difficult to detect breast cancer?

The implants should be removed as soon as it is reasonably possible to do so. It is not a medical emergency and since the availability of your preferred surgeon is relatively soon it should be fine to proceed with her/him.
If your implants are the only cause for your autoimmune disorder, then yes, the removal should cause the disorder to clear. However, most autoimmune disorders are not caused by just one thing, and are often strongly related to diet and toxins in your environment which may not change even if...
