Out of curiosity, what's your blood disorder? I have FVL and MTHFR, which is why I chose implant-based reconstruction rather than autologous reconstruction.

My blood disorder is unknown. I've had high factor VIII and protein S, high RBC and high hemoglobin. My cbc and coagulation workup is literally different every time. Until they have a better idea, my treatment plan is lovonax after surgery.

Can either of you say more about this? I am considering my surgical options and also have MTHFR and FVL mutations.

Because I had FVL, there was an increased risk of an autologous fat transfer failing. I opted for silicone reconstruction.
