anyone get their RA or autoimmune disease after breast implants?

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

I have been reading the list for awhile, but never posted anything

till now.I believe I got my RA from my breast augmentation.I know

there were reports that maybe implants do cause autoimmune diseases

and it just so happens about a year after I had my surgery , which was

very rough, delayed healing, I am still scarred from my skin

basically " dying " on my left breast, I started getting symptoms of RA

and was diagnosed.I am just curious if anyone on here or if you know

of anyone that had the same operation and RA. Thanks for listening!

And FYI, I have had RA for 5 years, am on 15mg. of Methotrexate and 50

mg. of Enbrel.But the fatigue for me is horrible!
