Guest guest Posted February 11, 2004 Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 I am a 35 year old mother of three, who had smooth saline implants in Dec. '03. Everything went well, except at about 4 weeks post-op I had soreness and aching in both of my ankles and achilles tendons, which one week later began swelling as well. At first I thought I had damaged my tendons from a lot of walking in a pair of shoes that I normally don't wear. My doctor said I really irritated these tendons and just try to rest and stay off my feet. Well now it has been a total of 4 weeks with this pain which has spread to my knee joints and right elbow. My hands are often very cold and they feel very sluggish as I type this. Last night I had severe pain in my knees and my joints are soooo stiff in the mornings! Tomorrow I am going back to the doctor and will insist on an ANA blood test to find out if this is my body's reaction to these implants. I have a healthy history and have never had problems like this before. Does anyone have any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
