I've had a phone call from one of our local GPs. Several patients have turned up asking for their blood tests as they have PIP implants. Surgeons are sending patients to their GPs who don't know what to do.
Are we meant to measure silcone in these patients and if so, any ideas on the laboratory providing this? What are others doing?
Thanks, Sarah
