Can a Woman With Lupus Have A Breast Augmentation?


I'm asking because a new girl at my job has had a boob job, and swears she has Lupus and had her breasts done after she was diagnosed. Lupus is an auto-immune diease. Her immune system would, if she has Lupus, attack her implants and she would have a "Lupus Flare" the whole time her implants are in.

Your knowledge and opinions on this is appreciated!
Thanks!

I strongly advise you to contact Lupus support groups and ask there, they have so much more experience than any one of us here:

and there are many more support groups.
