I have implants due to BRCA2. Had my final surgery Feb 2022 and everything’s been perfect. I woke up Monday and my boob was red and sore so I got admitted for an infection, but there was no open wound or anything. Put on IV antibiotics for 3 days and sent home 2 days ago and felt almost back to normal. Woke up today and a bunch of liquid coming out which didn’t even happen while at the hospital during my stay. It’s ozzing white/green pus.
