Wow! What's your story? I'd be very interested to know what happened?
Hi Tannie,
Thank you for your concern.
***I will add a trigger warning here as my story isn't one you would wish on your worst enemy***
in June 2024 I had a prophylactic bilateral mastectomy direct to implants which failed within 6 weeks.
Since then, I have been told by multiple surgeons that the initial operation (specifically the mastectomy direct to implant part) was NOT appropriate for my body and skin type and that the size of the implants used were far too big resulting in wound narcosis and ultimate break down.
The result of the operation was VERY different to what we discussed in the preoperative appointment (I wanted smaller breasts the implants were MUCH BIGGER than my original breast size.)
Getting a lawyer was very hard and it came down to me name dropping (we have an experienced well known lawyer in the family) before someone would even look at my case!
Trying to get some compensation so that I can pay for corrective surgeries is one way I am trying to move forward with my life and fight my way back to health.
Gosh. Sound awful. Poor you. I have not bothered with implants. It all sounded too painful and problematic to me. I had surgury nearly 4 weeks ago and will just wear prosthesis. I am OVER hospitals and surgeries blah blah blah...I am OVER doctors wanting me to have this and have that and all recommending something a bit different. I just want peace and some calm life.
So did you find a solicitor etc? What's happening there? Medical negligence is SO HARD to prove. Getting compensation for anything is very very difficult.
All the best to you.
