Can Breathlessness And Dizziness Be Caused By Leakage After Breast Implant?
My right breast implant ruptured a few months ago with a slow leak and still seems to have a little fluid left in it but has almost deflated completely. I have had an MRI to confirm this but haven’t the money right now for surgery to correct or replace it. I have been having a lot of symptoms like shortness of breath and dizzy spells and heaviness and all around feeling bad. Could this all be due to the leak and am I in any danger with the implant now being compromised and still sitting in my body? Appreciate any help you can give. Thank you, Jackie

hi
it depends on type of implant silicon or salin implant, if salin usualy body absorbs it, if any infection then u see the doctor and if it is silicon leaking outside the capsule it will cause the problems as u said so i suggast to get it removed
