Guest guest Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 Dear a, I'm so happy to hear that everything turned out so well and that you were able to tell the nurses about our group! Hopefully their knowledge about the group will help more women find answers to their needs. So sad that someone else was just getting implants. I wish we could reach them before they make such an unfortunate mistake. You just take it easy and rest up! But thanks for coming to the group and letting us know how well everything went. We knew Dr. Huang would take good care of you. Now you are on your way to healing!

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 a , I had one breast that hurt more than the other and I wanted to karate chop it off. The doctor said this was from her scraping and muscle repair needed more than the other one. So more work was done on one breast than the other. No need to alarm....just one boobie needed more attention than the other. DWAI.... dont worry about it. Now your breast are perfecto Love In a message dated 2/27/2008 10:55:40 A.M.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 a- Yeah! So happy to hear that the surgery is behind you and you can start the healing process! That is so cool that you got the oppurtunity to tell the nurses about this group and why you were having your implants removed. When I had my explant (this was at a different hospital then where you had your explant,) all of the nurses were asking me why I was explanting and when I told them, they all gave me funny looks. I just thought...well, at least I planted the seed even if they didn't believe me. Yeah, it is sad to think that for each one of us that explants...there are many more implanting. For every one woman who joins this group, 10 more join a " pro-implant group. " I guess it is only human nature to have to learn for yourself about dangers in life. Sort of when you are a toddler and your mom tells you not to touch the hot fire place, but you do it anyway because you have to learn for yourself that it is dangerous. I think it is the same with implants, we can tell women until we're blue in the face that they are dangerous, but they still have to learn for themselves. Oh...sigh.... Anyway, I'm allergic to pain medications too, so I just took the tylenol post-op and that was fine for me. Once those drains come out, you'll start feeling MUCH better! Okay, well it sounds like I'll be seeing you on Saturday! I can't wait!!!

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 a, This is such wonderful news!! I was thinking of you and praying for you. I knew you'd just love Dr. Huang, she is such a sweetheart - so caring. If you don't get the drains out, I will be able to come to Denver this weekend but it won't be until after 12:00 on Saturday (sorry, I have a doctor's appt). Rest up missy!
