I don't want to scare you, but things like this do happen.

I had mine out July 2, 2001. I was scheduled to have it removed July 16th. It was not a breeze like they thought it would be. I was very sick after they took it out. I ended up in ICU because they couldn't get my fever to break. They found out that it was very infected and had I of waited til the 16th, I would have been dead. The worst part for me was that I could no longer breastfeed my daughter who was 2 months old.

I cannot tolerate regular milk anymore, and have to watch how much other dairy I eat. Also have to watch how much salad I eat.
