Guest guest Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 I did what you asked me to do Rogene and called my Dr office. He told me that he did a capsulectomy, is this what you were talking about? I don't think he did en bloc? I am happy today, my Dr said there is no reason not to try to get pregnant if I want to. He did say I should wait for my body to heal from the surgery and anesthesia. I would like to lose about 20 pounds before I get pregnant but I don't think that will happen very fast with my metabolism being so slow. I am glad I feel more energetic today. How long after explant surgery is it normal to get energy back? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 7, 2004 Report Share Posted December 7, 2004 Thank you for this dear Rogene: I have a girl in my group here who had the double-lumen and it was ruptured. After she had this implant removed she had a saline implant to replace the silicone/saline. She became very sick, the PS removed the saline because it had a faulty valve. This lady was born with only one breast and her mother gave her a breast implant as a gift when she was fifteen. Her mother suffers from guilt, but she did not know that these devices were unsafe. This girl is my friend and she waited two years to have her baby. He is healthy and now she wants another baby, but she can't get pregnant. She is just thirty years old. I wish that she would write to our , but she too has been gagged. Thank you for all that you do...love....Lea ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~````` Re: Re: Capsulectomy > > , > > You and your baby could be just fine if you got > pregnant soon.
