BioZorb Recall
I want to let all of you know that have had a BioZorb implanted during your breast cancer surgery that the FDA has recently made a Class 1 Recall on the device. This is the most serious FDA Recall possible. Google BioZorb Recall, Hologic BioZorb recall, FDA BioZorb Recall and you will read a lot of information about the damage, pain and suffering this device has caused. I am having mine removed after 11 years next week. There is help out there you just have to take the steps necessary to help yourself. Please spread the word to as many as you can that the BioZorb Marker has been Recalled.

How do you know if you have this?

Ideally, your surgeon should have discussed this with you before your lumpectomy, but I've spoken to a couple that did not know it was implanted until later. My notes from my surgery say a BioZorb marker was implanted.

@nmcdaniel - thank you for the update. I had seen this recall recently and meant to contact my surgeon but forgot. Appreciate the reminder.
