Between the time that ur expanders were totally filled and the exchange to implants, did u have any restrictions from plastics? Hoping for a break from restrictions. Ha

yes, but the bigger risk is taking medications that will most certainly damage your body worse. I was not a diabetic until now. My sugar glucose was 82 and now after taking Anastrozole for 21 months I have type 2 diabetes and Diabetic Retinopathy in my left eye. No one told me this could happen. I was told I will lose my eyesight and go blind. Really? I am so angry. My oncologist didn't think to tell me about my glucose level because he's only concerned with the numbers in my blood that are related to breast cancer. Really? Big pharma is using us as ginny pigs.

Please, please go to this conversation and post about this. I sent this link to another lady yesterday and maybe, you talking about it can help her too. https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/i-completed-all-treatments-for-breast-cancer-but-now-i-am-supposed/
I know that there are late effects from cancer treatments, you might want to mention how long ago you took anastrazole and for how long? Did you have other types of treatment as well?

1 ReactionAfter mastectomy. I had my own fat put into my breast.
Nothing man made in there.

1 ReactionShould the risks involved in implants be part of the equation in deciding on reconstruction or types of reconstruction?
I had fat taken from belly put into breast. No artificial lumps for me. !

1 ReactionI asked about that but you have to have a specialist and none was available in my area. A very risky surgery. Are you taking anastozole?
