Still Healing But Concerned
$6,500
At this point im very concerned about how my breast look. I left the care of the Dr who performed the surgery. After surgery he never once accepted responsibility for how my left breast looked and never admitted I had a problem going on. After trips to the ER I was given a new plastic surgeon who hss been great. He removed the dead skin and I am going to need a skin graft. Pictures are graphic be warned. Im on valiums now to because this has been overwhelming.

Surgery Gone Wrong Dr made a BIG Mistake
I had surgery on 6/20/14. This was my 2nd surgery perfomed by Dr Arch Miller. My first surgery was performed on 9/2013. Which was a breast lift, but he didnt put in Anchors. 4 months later my breast dropped. It was not due to me gaining weight either. I went back to the Dr in May 2014 and the Dr stated he would but in Anchors and do another lift but this time a Augmentation with Saline bags. The Surgery was supposed to take 4 hours, while my husband was in the visiting room he asked repeated what was wrong and was everyone. And the nurse said the Dr will be out shortly. 6 hours later the Dr and said everything had went fine. But we found out immediately that was a lie. I had skin missing off my left breast, and hemotoma within 24hrs after the surgery. I started having chest the 3rd day and my husband ended up taking me to the emergency room 2 times. My left breast was and is currently still bleeding. INFECTION has set up and now I have Skin Necrosis. But day 1 after surgery my Dr. Dr Arch Miller told me I was ok everything looked ok. 8 days after surgery I called again and he states thats the way my breast is supposed to look. I stated no I dont think so. I knew something was gravely wrong. I am still sick n in constant pain. Now I am at the beginning of a Malpractice suit. And the ER Dr found me a new Plastic Surgeon to fix this mess. I am n pain this has caused me a extreme amout of mental and emotional problems, and money. Also it has affected my marriage. At this moment I want the dead skin, infection and pain to go away. I dont not feel like Dr Miller cares or accepts responsibility for what he did to me.

45% of my left is gone my new surgeon removed the dead skin and currently im in the gradulation stage, I hope I spelled the correctly. If not my apology I change my dressings regularly and im still on pain meds. My nee Dr says I will have to get a skin graft. Which concerns me. This has been such a difficult experience

I hope you don't mind me asking... did you smoke ( or ingest nicotine)or were you exposed to secondhand smoke before or after your surgery?
