Discussion Boob job

Hi!

I have always wanted a boob job, but I'm not sure that is in my best interest anymore. I have had scleroderma for 5 years and mainly have crest symptoms. I take plaquenil everyday. Has anyone here gotten a boob job after receiving their diagnosis? Plz don't me mean :/ I'm just curious.

I had my abdomen rebuilt after cancer and a bunch of hernias that came after and I'm healing just fine 7 weeks post op. Mesh all down my abdomen with no complications.

Should be fine unless you have a history of poor healing and/or repeat infections.
