Can people with Multiple Sclerosis have breast implants?
Has anyone been diagnosed with MS and then had a breast augmentation later? I’m not asking about breast implants causing MS. I’d just like to know if it’s okay to get implants when a person is already diagnosed. I’m emberassed to ask my doctor and I haven’t gone in for my consultation yet.
And eh, don’t give me crap about boob jobs. It’s a personal choice and has nothing to do with the question.
Thanks guys!
I’m not an MD, but I’m a PhD who has worked in MS for 8 years. My opinion is: Yes, go ahead and get the implants. You’ll be sore and swollen for up to a week and will probably want pain killers the first couple of days and an anti-inflammatory but this should have no negative impact on your MS. Good luck!

Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this. I had asymetrical breast and had an implant put in my left breast to correct the problem. I had my augmentation done in May of 2003 and had a second surgery in March of 2004 to correct the “CC”. I believe I have it again.
I was just wondering if anyone else has had “CC” after augmentation and what you did for it? How many times did you have it?
sorry, i never got it, but i feel for you. I am sorry that you are having this re-occuring problem. I believe you should contact your surgeon and have him check it out. As you know, this is nothing to play with. Good luck!
