My Little update

Had my MRI results in the post today which confirms intracapsular rupture with 2 granulomata and node involvement. The right one thankfully is ok.

Saw Mr Falladar at MYA on Tuesday who can remove the implants, capsule and lumps and replace with Allergan Natrelle high profile 340cc with an overnight stay and histology on the lumps for £6000 :pale:
Needless to say as this whole thing is very unexpected I don't have £6000. Will have saved 1/3 of that by the end of the month and thanks to a very bad credit rating can't get a loan or credit card...even with a garuntor.
So far I love MYA and Mr F but am seeing Mr Whithy at My Breast in 2 weeks to compare. I have let mt PC at Mya know about the general mybreast offer for PIP's ladies and she has let head office know to see if there's anything they can do.
Can't wait for this all to be over.

Oh sweetie, I'm sorry to read you have a rupture Hug

I don't have PIPs but did have a rupture and was also in a financial predicament when needing to have the implants replaced and the damage repaired so can fully empathise with that sweetness.

Stay positive though hun, I know it's hard but it's what's going to get you through this. Hug

sorry to hear this hun. try to keep your chin up and hopefully everything will get sorted for you soon

Sorry to hear about your rupture. How long did you have to wait for your MRI results?

Im having mine replaced due to rupture on 15 September, and will be having 340 overs. Luckily i am within my aftercare so dont have to pay. I will keep my fingers crossed you can have them replaced cheaper and soon!

All the best xx

Am so sorry to hear you have a rupture.I hope that mya match the mybreast price for you.I just had my Pips replaced with them.I was reading my discharge notes today and I did have a capsulectomy during surgery so I could of had a rupture too.Will prob found out with my surgeon next week. I hope you manage to get something sorted. £6000 seems very high. Keep my fingers crossed for you xx

Thanks guys.
Found out yesterday I have £500 in an account I forgot about so I've got that cheque on it's way to me and after payday I should have about £2000 saved. It's just getting the rest of it now.
When I've decided who I'm going with and have the money sorted I'd like my op as soon as. Work have been great and said I could have the time off sick rather than use leave so don't need to wait on that.

There is a positive to all this...new boobies and new underwear yahoo

Went with Transform 6 years ago so aftercare most definitely run out plus I don't want to go with them again. For starters my surgeon not on BAAPS or BAPRAS and just a general breaking of trust thing. I want to do it right this time.

hi i have pips and i am waiting to find out if mine are ruptured as they arent wot they used to be like they are very soft and wen i bend over with no bra on they hang like coconuts and for 2 years old even a knw that shudnt happen does anyone knw the signs of a rupture

by Vix 21st August 2010, 5:06 pm

I havent had mine confirmed by an MRI but my surgeon is 90% certain mine has ruptured. Mine are under 2 years old too. The one which has ruptured is really soft, you cannot feel the implant, and when i lie on my back it falls to the side like a natural boob.

Ive also read that some people get a tingling burning sensation. Hope this helps, Others might be able to help a bit more. xx

I found lumps in my left breast and also had an achey pain down the left side. I've noticed that if I carry anything heavy or overdo it at work etc then the pain is worse. I also can't lay on my left at all and towards the end of the day I have to take my bra off it's that's uncomfortable.

by natalia 23rd August 2010, 10:47 am

ah hope u get it sorted out soon i went with transform 3 years ago i dont have pips i have cui ,s they never should of allowed them to be used xxxx

by Vix 23rd August 2010, 11:57 am

Hi Natalia,

How have you found your CUI's? I still havent decided whether i am going for the Natrelles or CUI yet, would be good to get your opinion. Mine will be 380 overs and im looking for them to look as natural as possible.

Thanks Vix xxx

by natalia 23rd August 2010, 4:08 pm

great no probs vix they look natural without a bra and feel like real boobs to i do like the rounded look i get with them though

has anyone had pips removed and replaced free of charge i think the surgeon who does them should replace them free if they are ruptured

.

Unfortunately as things stand at the moment hun free re-ops are only being offered to those with ruptured implants that are still within their after-care policy, if you're outside of that you will have to fund the surgery yourself.

It really isn't fair is it Hug

by kkkk 24th August 2010, 1:24 pm

has anyone been with the hospital group?i cant remember how long the aftercare is

by Vix 24th August 2010, 6:58 pm

Hi KKKK,

I went with the Hospital Group, i think it is 3 years x

by LittleOne 24th August 2010, 8:43 pm

Booked my op today!!!!!
Called mybreast to get an earlier consult if possible and i'd have to wait several weeks so stuck to the 2nd sept. PC said they're getting quite booked up and might be an idea to book my surgery there and then. So I did!! If I don't like what I hear next week I can cancel it and get my money for reserving my space back.
Sooooo 29th October I should be getting rid of these things if I like what I hear next week. Feels bloody brilliant!!!

by kate613 24th August 2010, 8:50 pm

Hi
So pleased to here you got your op booked! Just think your a step closer to the Pips being gone xxx

by LittleOne 27th August 2010, 9:37 am

My date's been moved to the 15th October! So chuffed about that. Looking forward to meeting Mr Withey next week. Not looking forward to the night shift straight after but nothing I can do about that.
Just received 6 new pillows in the post so I can have a nice little nest post op.
The pain is getting me down but knowing it's all going to be sorted soon is such a relief.
Thanks for all of your support in this xx

by Vix 27th August 2010, 12:09 pm

Congratulations Little one, not long now x

by LittleOne 27th August 2010, 12:10 pm

Thanks Vix, how are you getting on?

by kkkk 27th August 2010, 2:11 pm

hi girls went to see my surgeon today he seems to think that my implants are fine and the softness and saggin wen i bend ova are normal because i have had 3 kids but i tried to tell him i had the kids b4 ba not after my skin was stretched to max wen i had ba but now there is a lot of loose skin on my boobs he sed this is also normal and recommended a uplift wen i get my implants replaced.as i am still in my aftercare i get the pips replaced free of charge but im waiting to hear about a price for a bigger implant i dont really want to pay that much i dnt think bigger ones will make much difference as i have 465s and he sed 525s so im waiting for price he also asked if i wanted a tummy tuck which is a cheek i am 8 stone i have a bit loose skin off having kids but my waist is a 8.its all money to them
