Surgery & radiotherapy tips

Hi Laura, it can be a scary and uncertain time and sometimes our bodies dictate what our path will be. You sound like you might like reconstruction though, did you have a conversation about other reconstruction options? I was in a similar situation as in bilateral mastectomy after treatment finished, but while I did have a tissue reconstruction, there were implant options if I wanted to go that way. Even with having radiation there are options for most ladies.
