Should I go through breast augmentation if I have Graves Disease?

kimberlyfitz
I have booked a Breast Augmentation but I am concerned about Graves Disease (hyperthyroidism) affecting more problems in the future. I got Graves last year, but I have gotten a medical clearance from my Endocrinologist. However, I have only been getting blood results for about 3-4 months (which I am unsure if this should be a problem). I will be getting silicone implants, placed sub-muscular, and round implant shape. My biggest concern is health, and if I should go through with the procedure?
