Not a good deal, I am currently dealing with 3 bacterial infections in the right breast and the Plastic surgeon I used keeps saying its not infected. I had a surgical revision on 3/3/11 and he did not remove the sac of infection. I am going to a wound care center, and fear i will lose my right breast completely. I had been to the ER in January when i spiked a fever over 101.3, they said the right breast was infected then, but took no cultures, the PS said they didnt know what they were talking about. Even though i had green drainage that smelled like old fruit and garbage. I continued going to see the PS up until 2/14 and went to the wound care center on 2/28, the admitted me to the hospital from their office. My PS did a revision surgery where he was supposed to remove the abscess and drain the infection. Today 3/7/11, i had a fever of 101.2 and lots of pain, I will not tell anyone I know to go to him.

I found out I had 5 infections in my breast....
I found out I had 5 infections in my breast. Strep, Staph, prevotella, diphthroid, and peptostreptococcus. I was in the hospital for 5 days released March 19, 2011 and had to be placed on IV antibiotics via a PICC line for an additional 14 days. Now I am on another oral antibiotic, but the drainage cleared up, and I am feeling tons better. I have only had 1 fever since leaving the hospital, I feel pretty good. I have nurses coming in everday to change my bandages, but I truly regret having all these complications. Thanks to every one who commented on my post and sent me well wishes.
Do your research about the whole procedure and learn about all complications so you can make an informed decision.
