It went really well. Thanks. The immediate recon isnt a breast its just an air filled xpander they put in to stretch the muscle but it is giving me hope of getting back to normal. Should get implant in a few months depending what other treatments i need. Still dont know. The whole thing is a shock i had all the emotions but now its done im not as devastated as i thought id be. Im glad this has been found and dealt with at this early curable stage. Every doctor and nurse has been so kind and compassionate .
