I have a small pea sized lump above my implant. I've seen my breast oncologist who says it does not feel like cancer and is an anomaly associated with the implant. I wondered if the implant was draining; I've had it for 2.5 years and the breast onc said if it were would I want it replaced? She says draining will do no  harm. She said she would order an ultrasound if it would make me feel better but really is comfortable with it being an implant problem. If I wanted an MRI she suggested I see the PS. Well, not crazy about so many docs, so decided to wait. The problem with Ultrasounds is false positives and I would not want that. But then, I thought, geez, what else can go wrong in there!!!

Anybody have a change like that with the implant?
