Guest guest Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 ok guys - here they are. The clearer one (left) was the replacement for the rupture I had in 1999 so it looks a little clearer but if you look at the valve it is black - this is moldy tissue growth inside of the valve which was causing it to stay partially open and leak, the right side - well if you look at it it doesn't take much explaining... it was the original placed in 1996 (then removed in 1997 re: capsular contracture then re-used by my wonderful caring PS - yuck!!) If you look you will notice that the original implants were textured - then when he did the replacement in 99 he used a smooth. Of course he didn't tell me that but it makes you wonder why - maybe the textured were breaking down putting silicone chunks throughout my body?? yep they were per doc Vasey. I am sure he noticed this but didn't bother to tell me to replace the right textured one also. jerk. Let me know if these don't go through..Both were severely contaminated w/ bateria & mold per Dr. Blais - even the clearer one shari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
