Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 16 | Just when I thoght they had cured my re-occuring growths on original site, I got two more, and one kept bleeding, whilst other was hard. Yesterday they removed my implants and surgically removed both growths. Tissue sent off for histology report and implants to go back in in 10 days, then see surgeon in 2 weeks for results/check up. Last time I posted I didn't find anyone with similar probs, but thought worth another try.Could really do without this re-occuring trauma, but do not know any solutions.
