I have cystic fibrosis and want breast implants?

I'm 5'9 and 107 pounds. I already tried everything under the sun to gain weight but this is the highest I've ever been. I'm 21 and have never had a boyfriend because I'm so self-conscious about my chest. I really want breast implants b/c im barely even a 34 A. There is no information on the internet about my particular situation so I could really use some help and addvice! Please

The big question is, what are your pulmonary function tests like? Are your lungs as healthy as they could possibly be? If not, can you increase your airway clearance to get your lungs as healthy as possible?





There is information out there, but it'd be in forums like Cysticfibrosis.com. They have a really nice adult forum there, and all kinds of information.





I work in a CF clinic and a couple of my patients have had implants. They've been pretty happy with them, but caution that you have to really check out your surgeon and make sure he or she knows about your CF. Any surgery requiring anesthesia is not to be taken lightly.
Reply:curious, has she had a lung transplant in the past and if so how long ago?? Report Abuse

Reply:Any time that anyone has surgery and general anesthesia, there is risk of death. For many people, the risk is small. However, your risk is higher because of your cystic fibrosis. I can see that it is painful for you to not have had a boyfriend, but is it worth risking your life? You have made it through the worst part of maturing through your teenage years - meeting boys who do not have a 36D requirement will be easier.





You may need additional surgeries because of your disease - you should try and keep yourself as whole as you can.
