I have been doing a lot of research for a good...
I have been doing a lot of research for a good ex-plantation doctor, I found one and after my MRI my doctor (GP) recommended me to another one who reconstructs for cancer patients, so I will be seeing him first ( no cancer). I will have to have the lymph node removed at the same time....not happy, but will be happy to have them out of me soon. When I first had them put in at 5'10" 120lbs, I was pretty small and I waited till after my first child in hopes I would fill out....NOT! I get slight burning feeling in ruptured breast and have pain when I left my arm above my head. I have put on weight since my 20's about 35lbs, I have put on about four inches in my bust size. I had implants to balance me, I believe when I started I was a size 34c I am now a 38c. I am so glad I found this site and the women sharing their journey and photos, it has taken a lot of anxiety away. I am still in the start up stage, I checked with my insurance and they have said if it invades another body part my surgery will be covered. My cost I will not know till I have my first consultation. Once I know when my surgery is, I will post pre photos etc. I will keep you posted. Has anyone else had theirs rupture/herniated and get into lymph node?
My Befores
The side view one looks like it is lumpy in photo, it's not, just shadow. They have become larger since menopause and not comfortable.
First consultation tomorrow
So excited to see Dr. Hymes tomorrow he is a cancer reconstruction doc, but my GP doc wanted me to see him because of the lymph nodes being invaded with 37 year old silicone. It will be good to be in his system cause when I have mamo's after explant I am sure there will be some spots and he will know about them and radiologist won't think it something else. It is possible he will either say my PS along with a general surgeon can take care of my implant/lymph node removal or he can do it, he has from info done explants. I can't wait to get them out the left one is burning more by the armpit...not fun but I have much gratitude for my health and this to shall pass.
Provider Review
Excellent, I can not say enough about her and her staff. They worked with me first with my insurance and then with a Trust I found since there was a huge question on my insurance if it would even cover my explantation, Dr. Q is a sweetheart, very caring and professional, highly recommend her. She is located in Rancho Mirage, CA
