Guest guest Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 , Maybe Leyna knows, as she has done this way more than I have. Did you do any internet searches on iodine painting? I found several pages when I was searching. I don't know what it could be, but my suggestion is to not use it anymore. Patty Lamse <wannabe_proverbs31@...> wrote: Patty, I got a rash from the iodine. The spot I painted that used to be a light yellow, this morning is pink with what looks like broken blood vessels under the skin. Do you have any idea what this is? Could this be a reaction to any toxins from the plastic bottle the iodine came in?

If it does, then you won't have to worry about nightsweats making it disappear. On the other hand, if it is not gone when you go to bed, but gone when you get up, then it could mean either two things: Either it was going to disappear before the 24 hour period was up, or your sweating washed it out. Then you could try to paint just before bed and see if it is there when you wake up. I am not sure if sweat plays a role or not, but if you try it either of these ways, you should be able to get some benefit from it and be able to tell if you are deficient in iodine. If it lasts all day and on into the night, then I would not be too concerned, and you could use kelp and other thyroid supportive substances rather than the iodine.

What do you think? I have always thought something was up with my thyroid but maybe not as much as I thought?? Not to sure where to go from here, should it last for the absolute 24hrs?. Just wondering if I should do it just before I go to sleep so I can see exactly how many hours its there for. It was there for at least 10hrs or more.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2007 Report Share Posted January 20, 2007 Patty, I was curious who your doctor is. My health is fading fast and I am getting it done in a few months. At this time I am scheduled with Dr. Huang. Thanks Tricia Trish <glory2glory1401@...> wrote: , The easiest way is to get a copy of your operative report from the doctor for the surgery. All surgeries have a report which details the steps taken to perform the surgery and the events throughout. I believe it is required by law. Of course, we are trusting that the doctor has recorded the events of the surgery truthfully and clearly. You may be surprised at what you find. For instance, one woman who was told she was getting a total capsulectomy at consultation found out that she truly had gotten a partial capsulectomy. She underwent further surgery with a different doctor to get the rest out at great expense, but her healing improved. What you will search for in the operative report are words that describe the procedure regarding the scar tissue. For instance, mine says "....The knife was used to incise through the skin into the subcutaneous tissue and the Bovie is used to achieve hemostasis and continue dissection down to the breast capsule. The capsules were both followed around their entire perimeters to completely excise the capsules." So, I know for sure that my capsules were removed based on this report. I had "en bloc" removal. If you do not have a report and cannot obtain one, it is very hard to verify that the capsules were removed. The only sure way would be to open you up and see what's inside--not really an option unless some suspicious masses are found upon MRI or ultrasound of the breasts.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2007 Report Share Posted January 21, 2007 Thanks Patty, that makes me feel good. Tricia Trish <glory2glory1401@...> wrote: Hi , He was Dr. Karl Hiatt in Mesa, AZ. You should be in good hands with Dr. Huang too. She knows the proper procedures for explant--she's the one who removed the remaining scar tissue from my friend who found out through the operative report of her first plastic surgeon that he had only done a partial capsulectomy. My friend traveled from California to Denver to have surgery with Dr. Huang for the sole purpose of removing any and all remaining scar tissue. She was very happy with her work. Dr. Huang also do some internal sutures of some sort to lift her breasts and make them look better. I am sure you will be pleased with her. Best wishes on your upcoming explant!
