Guest guest Posted April 3, 2005 Report Share Posted April 3, 2005 Hi Thought Id fill you in on my explant the operation went well I had a total capsulectomy with a drain (as I only had one implant) the surgeons were really nice although they wouldn't confess to knowing about implant deseases I'm pretty sure they did. unfourtunatley for me they removed my drain the next day as it only contained 5ml of blood and nothing else, I got home and felt fine over the next couple of days my breast began to swell in fact it got bigger than with the implant so I went to see my GP who told me I had a seroma and that it would drain back into my body and not to worry about it, the next day my scar came open and the fluid stated to run out so my husband took me back to the hospital they drained the rest of the fluid and re-dressed it they have taken a swab but don't think its infected as it looks quite clean but I have to go back on friday so they can check. I am still losing quite alot of fluid especially over night the docs seemed suprised that my body had reject what would normally be absorbed happilly by the body but I think this confirms that there were definatley toxins presant. I have noticed a few strange things since explant my skin has become quite bumpy, I'm having regular headaches and my skin smells like Ive been handleing money or something is this normal? The joint pain and stiffness has gone but I still have fatigue occasionally but otherwise feeling great. Hugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
