Have you ever done a breast lift and implants on someone who has a pacemaker?

Asked By:dzavy in Sacramento, CA

I lost 125lbs. a year ago. Unfortunately I also lost my breasts! Nursing 5 children didn't help either. I need a breast lift and implants badly. I had open heart surgery 20years ago for a birth defect and required a permanent pacemaker, which I need 100percent of the time. I had paid and had date for surg when anesthesiologist cancelled surg and said I was too big a risk. I am so unhappy being flat chested after being a 40DDD and I don't know what I will do if no one will perform the surgery.
