Hello! It's been a long time since I've been here. I was wondering if anyone with a brachial plexus injury has had breast augmentation.

Did you have a plexus injury during your augmentation surgery or were they separate events?

With the possibility of added internal adhesions/scar tissue and spread of RSD??
Plus the added weight to stress the upper back muscles.

I know some have had reductions..to help w/ TOS symptoms.


I think this question was asked many years ago , on the RSD or TOS forum..

I am thinking of having breast augmentation. I've had gastric bypass surgery and lost 125lbs. I would like to have a tummy tuck and breast augmentation to get my body back to what I looked like before the weight gain. I've had the brachial plexus injury since 1996. I'm afraid to have the breast surgery now becasue I just thought about the brachial plexus injury.Mine wasn't serious enough for surgery but I have pain. I also have RSD but not as bad as others. I have a spinal cord implant and getting morphine pump and then the other two surgeries.

Just wondering of anyone else has had breast augmentation after brachial plxus injury. Not brachial plexus injury caused by breast augmentation.
Plus I am not going large. I just want back what I've lost.

My best friend had 1st rib resection and breast augmentation. Looks great and no after effects.
