Guest guest Posted June 8, 2005 Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 Thank you Kathy, all this info is going to help me out, I am sure of it. There certainly are alot of angels in this room. I have all the critical stuff written down so that when I go I can ask him. The one I have an appt with on 6/29 is BC and I am positive that the one I really want to go to is also BC. I don't think Reno has as many choices as the big cities do. If I don't get a good feeling from this guy then I will have to go to Plan B, which I don't have figured out yet, lol. I have promised myself to get in gear tomorrow and no more tears. LOVE, KATHIELOOKING FORWARD TO FINDING MYGOOD HEALTH AGAIN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 8, 2005 Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 Kathie I am glad that you have found our group and sorry to hear that you have lost your job and are needing disability. Hopefully getting your implants out will see you back on the road to wellness. I have some questions about your plastic surgeon. You may feel that you are at his mercy, but he still working for you. Please make sure he will do a good job. Is he board certified? Does he have a good reputation and do you know anything about him? You need to make sure that he will take the implants out properly. That means having the capsules removed as well as the implants. Women who don't get their implants out are more likely not to get well so it is extremely important to have it done right. Also it is good that the ps use drains so that fluid and blood from the surgery drain out and don't cause swelling or possible other complications. Have you met with this ps yet? If you are not sure he will do a good job, I would find a way to finance going to someone who will. Good luck to you and welcome to our group. We will support you in any way we can.
