Bi lateral mast and recon going home tomorrow !
What a week of being scared and in pain but its done now. Breast tissue all removed from both breasts just giving me now that bit more protection.
Its been a tough week. Surgery last Friday, down and out sat and sun snd a slow recovery mon, tue and today up and about quite freely. Tomorrow home to my 3 beautiful girls. No regrets about having the breasts off and hoping now I can try and think a bit more on the brighter side. Im hlad the bilateral mastectomy only has to happen the once and it hasnt been an easy week but we do what we do right.
Lets hope that's my last drastic BC step I have to take and apart from blowing my boobies up and 1 more small op for implants, regular exercise and diet changes fingers and toes crossed for a recovery.

- June1952MemberVery happy to hear your news - now you can go home and look after yourself. I went home with one drain which kept filling one day then empty the next, then full again so they stayed with me ! Glad they are sending you home drain-free.
