Hello and thank you for posting,

It sounds like you have had a difficult time with having different breast implants over the years.

I am unsure what help or advice you need. As cancer information nurses I am afraid we cannot advise about implants as this is very specialised. You may have done this already but it might be helpful to speak with your GP about the symptoms you are currently experiencing. I wondered if they were aware of what you have been through and if they can refer you back to see a plastic surgeon.

I am sorry I cannot be more helpful on this occasion but I hope you can get some help with this.

Take care,

Jemma

They are aware, they want me to go back to counselling they can’t be bothered to tell me the truth if the doctor tells me I have left ruptured implant it’s been like that a long time that was picked up on a cat scan so how can it not be see you in 5yrs I feel myself slipping again, and all I think about is my 2 dogs they won’t survive I don’t want anyone looking after them I Carnot cope with this?

Hello Lostlife

I'm really sorry to hear about all that you've been through and how much you're struggling at the moment. It sounds like it's been a really difficult time for you. 

In terms of the hospital and your concerns about the care that you've received, you might want to consider getting in touch with the hospital PALS team. It's part of their role to help resolve concerns when using the NHS. 

It sounds from your post as if you might find it helpful to access some support for your mental health as well. You mention that your GP has spoken about counselling and this might be something to consider to help you come to terms with all that you've been through, alongside any other support that may be necessary.  Don't forget that the Samaritans are available 24/7 if you feel overwhelmed or want to talk with someone about how you're feeling. 

I do hope that you can access the help and support you need Lostlife. 

Best wishes,
