Guest guest Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 Hi dede, thanks for the info. Believe me, when i woke with the rash i was online rigt away and saw the ibc and read everything i could find on it. The doctor I saw was at the breast health center at california pacific medical center in san francisco. One of the best places to go for BC. I also was seen by one of the best breast cancer surgeons in Sf who diagnosed me as looking fine and it was consistant with an infection. She said she has seen these implants cause infections like that. She watched the MRI on dvd and said the radiologists report was certainly more excitting than the mri was. So she led me to believe its all cleared now and I told her I intended to have them removed. You know how doctors are tho--she wouldnt say anything else negative about them. Just sort of silently agreed with me to have them removed. She recomennded i go back to my PS that put them in. He refered me to her when the trouble started. I think they are friends or at the least know each other. Sound like I really need another opinion? The doctor in the hospital who sees cancer every day (well they both do) didnt seem overly concerned. She said they appeared cystic (fluid filled). And wrote a couple notes for the mri tech which i was having done after that. I almost feel like Im wishing for cancer now in the fact I cant accept im fine in her opinion. She wants me back in 3 months and she wants another mri done at that time too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
