Textured Breast Implants
I just searched textured breast implants and only found a discussion from 2019. I was wondering if any other ladies have replaced their Allergen Textured implants more recently and how that went? I had double masectomy in 2014 and textured implants at the same time in reconstruction. I have quite a bit of anxiety over them…

Wow it's been a while. How the time flies!
Good afternoon beautiful BCNA. I just wanted to pop in and say Hi. It's been sooooo long since I've been here.

Newly diagnosed with DCIS

Scanxiety - bone mineral density
Tl;Dr - it’s another 2 am freakout. I'm having a panic into the void. I'm 3 years on from my diagnosis of early breast cancer (hormone positive idc).
