Good advisor

Hello everyone,

Have you undergone breast reconstruction? Or are you looking into it to this procedure?

It would be a wonderful support tool and advice repository if you could you share what your experience with breast reconstruction, what you wished you would have known before, what you would recommend asking the plastic surgeon prior to the procedure, and anything else you feel relevant.

I did not. I still had 31 rounds of radiation to do. Then I would have to wait a few more months. I didn’t want to go through surgery again. I can’t say I’m totally happy not having anything but I’m happy and my husband never says a word about it.
