Is there any evidence, scientific or anecdotal, that silastic implants could be affected on long haul flights?

I have been asked to do a 11 hour flight. Last time I was generally unwell - muscle pain, nausea, head aches, fatigue - after the outbound journey, then much worse for 4weeks after my return. Could my silastic implants have been affected by cabin pressure? Thank you
