    I had a large hematoma on my left breast a week after surgery and got rushed back into hospital, straight back into surgery to have the implant removed the hematoma removed and then the implant put back in again. I was then in hospital over night. Was such a traumatic time for me.
    Was just wondering if anyone else had the same or similar experience?

    Hi, I have just had a similar experience. Had surgery on Jan 7th, by the evening I hadn’t kept any food down and my left breast was very swollen, so the next morning the surgeon came back and I got taken back into theatre to have it removed. He said it was 300ml of blood! But as soon as I was back from the second round of theatre I felt so much better. However he did have to put a drain in my left side then.
    It’s so painful on my left side now even with all my painkillers when I try to sit up and sometimes just randomly. How long did it take for you to not feel any pain from it?
    So annoying as my right side is completely fine and just numb, not really any pain!

    Hope you are getting on okay!
