I currently have 450 CC saline implants under the muscle, think I have Bii, I've had mysterious autoimmune symptoms for the last 9yrs. They're not improving & no diagnosis. I need to remove this set with a capsulectomy & if my symptoms improve, can I REIMPLANT under the muscle again if my symptoms turn out to not be related?Also was thinking of explant, (fluff)Do a lift in 6 months, then possibly add some fat transfer 6 months later if my health improves and I don't want to reimplant.

A property executed breast implant surgery should have no impact on breast feeding as the ducts should not be disturbed.
When placed through an inframmary incision, the implant never really touches the breast tissue; it slides underneath it, so this approach has the least impact on the gland...
Your anesthesiologist needs to be made aware of your issue so your arms and shoulders can be positioned well in surgery. You only have one capsule in each breast. Anything you can do to decrease the weight of your breasts might improve your symptoms, but you still may come to a more involved...
For best fat survival, I would suggest first having your implants and capsules removed, and then doing the fat transfer at a second surgery once healed and the swelling has subsided. You might decide that you don't want any fat grafting.
