Guest guest Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 Sandy ~ I had a seroma for a good while, and it was removed along with a large tumor in 95. I have 2 now, one in each breast. They hurt. You dont forget what they feel like ! I hope this is your key to healing !

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 Hi Sandy,If you look back in prior postings of mine, you'll see mention of my having seromas and hematomas. In the search on the saline group, type in seroma or hematoma Traci.Love Traci"Feeling down? Saddle up." ~Author Unknown From: sandy <dusty.com@...>Subject: Patty and Group Cc: dusty.com@...Date: Monday, July 14, 2008, 12:51 PM In over 10 years of implant support, this is the first time I've seen anyone mention having a seroma. I believe all these ladies who are still so very ill with symptoms should get an ultra sound after thier surgery if thier symptoms still remain. It's very possible to have a seroma that went undetected. I don't think it is very common. I hope you find a good surgeon who is very talented and skilled about taking care of this! Dr. Blais said a seroma is common after surgery Is it covered by insurance? Yes Do you have anything scheduled yet? Breast surgeon appt - July 28'th He's a male - We'll see how it goes I plan to have documentation on hand I'm so sorry you are dealing with this! Since I have not heard about this happening to anyone, I am not sure what the recovery is like, so please keep me posted. Considering what Traci has been through I' not that worried at all - Not yet anyway!! I just pray another seroma doesn't form- UGH I just want all this garbage out of me Seromas can form anytime after explantation. If it is infected, then that is probably why you feel sick. We go in through the same incision. MG doesn't diagnose seroma, ultrasound does. Dr. Blais and Dr. Kolb said ... if the seroma has mold in the fluid, the biotoxins can cause these symptoms. Maybe this nasty seroma is why Rash that comes and goes on my face Breaking out in Sweats High blood pressure Partially Paralyized Extreme Fatigue Chemical Breath Little Energy Muscle Loss Weight Gain Hot Flashes Very Weak Numbness Joint Pain Sandy~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 I guess we should do a poll and find out how many women have had seromas? It has not been a big discussion point on this group as far as I can remember.

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Dr. Blais said being partiallyparalyzed has nothing to do with this nasty nodule which most likely has mold and fungi and chemical garbage in it Hope I can prove him wrong because I was definitely a lot more paralyzed when the saline implants were in me I hope when this nodule is removed I will no longer have chemical breath I never fluffed and little lefty is deformed I see the breast surgeon on Friday If a man ever begs me for implants again I will kick you to the curb See Ya! Sandy,Looks like you have your answer dearie.Your surgeon needs to get on it!PattyJust picked up my film and reportMy report reads as follows. There is a simple fluid collection in the left breast at the six o'clock position 2 cm from the nipple and measures.4.2 x 1.6 x 1.4 cm This is likely a post operative hematoma, seroma or lymphoceleInfection cannot be excluded.

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 This does not sound like a proper removal....there may be reason to consider a second surgery to remove that scar tissue, unfortunately. It has happened way too often! Patty > > needs more knowledge > > Hi, The surgeon did not tell me much,she said it will only take 20Min's to remove the one implant, > when the surgeon removed the implant it was completely flat. That's all i Know. I just didn't know what to ask really. > I had the implant leaking in me for 7 months before they removed it. What do i do? what do i ask the doctor? i feel lost. > Thank you. > X > richardson343@... > > > Do you remember how long your surgery took ? > I am wondering why you are still so sick > > It should be close to a 6 hour operation to remove your > implants, capsules and En Block with Drains !! > > > I want to make sure you understand that proper removal means > 1.
