So still on the mend
Well well well after my last update and getting all stitches up...... Puss after 6 days :(. So we opened a part up again. Ugh, so only a small part though. My PS cleaned it again and has seen me every single day and has been more than amazing. Unfortunately the wound had to be packed with gauze every day so that sucked! But after 2 more weeks it's finally getting stitched up tomorrow for hopefully the final time. Please please please let this be it! I couldn't be happier about my surgeon. This had nothing to do with him and would have happened no matter what surgeon I had. But I can say I'm almost certain not one would have handled this or me in such a caring, kind way. Not once have I felt like a burden and they have seen me pretty much every day. Fingers crossed for both of us this is it lol

On the mend
I'm on the mend, my PS has been AMAZING through this! Problem is that I'm from Canada so I go home and the doctors there all day and do different things. My surgeon is amazing and this is that crazy slim .002% complication that can happen. I am ok as long as I'm near my surgeon. Oxygen therapy has been amazing! I was closed up yesterday and feel 1 000 000 better. You are all so very kind. Thank you

jeez! i hope you keep mending - if it comes back just get the implant out - take time to heal it all up and then replace the implant - but hopefully it will just keep healing at this point!!

I am 5 weeks post op, my left breast developed an Eschar...... Home care tried to chemically debride it, it tore open. I returned to my surgeon in the states (I'm from Canada) had it debrided, it was totally clean! I was told to go home, do dry to wet dressings for 1 week, then wet to wet, and return..... necrotic tissue has shown back up. I'm having it debrided again. I have no idea what to expect at this point. I don't care if the scar is hideous I just want it closed. I'm doing hyperbaric oxygen therapy..... Anyways has anyone seen this? Any person I show gasps and almost bursts into tears. I'm tired :(. Any advice? Why did this happen? My right one looks amazing! It's still sore but I'm thinking it ought to be, I did have a major surgury!

How much did you pay for the procedure? My PS told me to be careful of the states cheap prices, sometimes Ps's there will reuse implants by just sterilizing them. I'm not sure in your case but I hope you heal and feel better love.

Oh my! I've never seen anything like this & didn't know this could happen ... I'm so sorry for what you're going through.
I have found hyperbaric oxygen therapy to be very helpful with wound healing, so you're on the right track! What has your US doctor said? How is he/she supporting you?
Thank you for sharing this with us & please do keep us posted. You have my wishes for a speedy recovery. xx

This is so unfortunate, there is no way of knowing if these things will happen. Your PS should be holding your hand through this, hope it gets better. Keep us updated.
