Saline Implants and Hives?

[Guest guest]

I'm new to this group. I had BA with smooth saline implants placed under the

muscle via TUBA on 2/3/2010. On 3/15/2010, I woke up with hives. I have had

hives ever since (4+ weeks)> Prior and since the surgery, I have not changed

anything. I am a super healthy, fit person.

Anyone in this group experience hives after implant? Did the hives go away after

explant or while you still had/have implants?

If after explant, how long did you have your implants? Saline or silicone? Did

you have the capsule removed or en bloc or just the implant?

I am in the process of interviewing surgeons for removal. I've had my implanting

PS and Dr. Melmed both advise me that I don't need a capsulectomy since I've

only had the implants in for short time.

Please advise.

Thank you all...

, one of our gals had implants 5 weeks, and got so sick

immediately ! Her name is Gretchen, she started a web page, I highly suggest

you check it out.

After explant, she continued to get more ill, even went into a coma........

so she flew across the US and had Dr Kolb remove the Scar Capsules that

formed. They are not easy to remove when so early on, but it is best

if you do.......

You see, when you get a foreign body, even a sticker, your body has

an immune response, and the macrophages start to attack it and surround it

with scar tissue to protect you for that foreign body. The scar tissue also

holds toxins in that permeate from the outter silicone shell.

Here is her web page: http://myimplantstory.com/

Sending you love, hugs, healing and hope ~
