@christylv, hi, it’s a long story and had a very long and difficult time with infection that wore away parts of my chest, they reconstructed my chest and put in the implants which over many years are trapped under the scar tissue. I now have deformed breasts but it’s not noticeable with a bra, it’s not how I wanted to end up but I’m an old lady now and I’ve had cancer twice so I don’t want to deal with this anymore especially when I was told it would be a big job to repair all the damage and I don’t have the strength to go through it.

@frouke did your saline implants (or the procedure) cause your infection or something else?

@frouke totally understand that makes sense. Did the cancer come back in the opposite breast? And how many years later? What stage was it?
