Red face CAN SOMEONE TELL ME IS THIS NORMAL WITH BREAST IMPLANTS???

Hi,
I am new to this board, I just got breast implants 1 week ago, my doctor put them over the muscle and I am in so much pain I feel like I am going to die!

It feels like someone beat the crap of of me with a base ball bat! I kept getting shooting sharp pains in my breasts, burning pain, I tried massaging them like my doctor said and they always hurt worse after.. and when I wake up in the morning it is worse! I can barly walk and need help out of bed.... Can anyone tell me if this is normal? When I went back to get my stiches out my doctor said he has never seen anyone in this much pain before and was shocked!

Any information would be greatful thankyou

What was wrong with your real breasts to be worth all of this? I thought the new trend was to go with your real natural breasts? I hear many women are getting implants out as real breasts are healthier?

Blueeyes23,

I had breast implants put in about 6 years ago and I
had all the same feelings you did. What I did was
get into the bath tub full of warm water and bend
over to get them in it. I was very very achy the first
week. If you have any pain pills you might try taking them. I wished I had never got mine because I have had nothing but trouble with them. Mine bottomed out which means they fell below the nipple, also had one leak and replaced. I have been thinking of removing mine for a long time. I also have problems with alot of illness such as Fibromyalgia etc. Hope everything turns out for you.

blueeyes-
I had implants put in about 3 years and 10 months ago.  When I first got them I was really depressed emotionally.  I cried all the time and I too was in pain.
However I didn't know of the length they lasted until recently when I read the post about 'Do implants Expire'.  I guess I didn't do my homework on implants.  I had called and found someone that was less expensive than anyone else and went to him.  He didn't mention anything about 7-10 years to me.  I was under the impression of them lasting 20 years, and replacing them only if they deflate.  My implants were put in wrong too.  My right breast wasn't put in the pocket and my left breast was.  This makes my right breast hard and numb.  That feels good to say. I haven't been able to tell my close friends or family about this. I was ashamed or maybe embarrassed. They do look pretty much the same.
I only wish now that I would have spent more money and went to someone else.  Now I have to worry about replacing them in possibly less than 6 years. This has been a very devastating experience for me, and yes I am still feeling ashamed of myself.

Try not to get upset about the pain, this will only effect your emotions.
I believe you will like your implants if they were put in correctly and you know what to expect from them.

According to everyone I've talked to, it depends a great deal on the doctor. I had overs and I didn't even feel ANY pain at all. I felt great the day after surgery. I have heard unders hurt really bad, but then some girls I know have unders and said it didn't hurt bad, but that they had a really good doctor. Sorry to hear about your pain!
