I developed Mycobacterium Abcessus

$4,100
I was very pleased with my results, However I am now suffering with an Infection that EXTREMELY SERIOUS - Mycobacterium Abcessesus . I was hospitalized due to me feeling terribly ill for 6 days with leisons all over my butt.White Blood Count was 16,000... these Bumps, nodules are painful and disgusting.. NOT SURE HOW THIS HAPPENED TO ME. My life has came to a complete stop.. I wish I Never gotten this Surgery. I will spend the next 6months to a year on Antibiotics.

OMG! Be well. I just read an article about this bacterium on the CDC website as I’m having my BBL in the next few months w/Dr. Kagan @ Avana. Per this article, it appears that either contaminated medical devices were used on you OR ur skin wasn’t properly disinfected during (or after) ur procedures! Regardless, I’m pissed for u
Feel better baby , I really really am sorry you’re going though this
Hi, i got the same 2 years ago. still now under check up every 2 months in the hospital. you will go trough some very emotional period. i wish you all the best.
Omg are you serious, where did you go for treatment. I’m praying so hard it’s not this hard I can’t take it.

ORIGINAL POST

ASS BY Dr. Bass

Extremely pleased with my results.. I loved Dr. Bass attitude . The comments where their saying otherwise they must have went to someone else , I couldnt phantom him ever being less then compassionate and sweet his staff loved him as well. DR.Bass too very good care of me and gave me what I asked .. projection. He also told me realistically results n what is not.

Did yu have to take the Floradix liquid before the surgery and do yu have low iron ? are yu taking the liquid now after the surgery Just wondering im next up January 4th
Hey love I’m Jan4th with dr Bass too, I’m taking the floradix and plan to take it after as well. I do have low iron so I’m getting the cell saver
Did you have any other surgeries prior? Is he really good? I see mixed reviews on him but really like his work. Is he worth it?
Yes I had a tummy tuck n breast by Dr. Ortega. He gave me what I asked for. I asked for projection he gave it. He's responsive and informative. Me meeting him I have no complaints. But I'm no longer recommending surgeons. This recovery is rough its no walk in the park and be prepared for complications, jyst pray they dont occur.
You couldn’t phantom? Or fathom?
I’m sure u know what I meant! Smart ass. Ain’t no body got time for the [RS bleep] ! Here .
