Hi Tanya. In July this year I had my right breast removed. I was given the choice of a lkumpectomy or mastectomy but advised to have the latter because of the size of the tumour and the likelihood of a return trip to the theatre. I didn't think I was over endowed before but now I am really embarrassed about the lop sidedness. I won't let my husband see me without a prosthesis. I wish I had had both taken off at the same time. I have been put on the waiting list for a reconstructiuon but have been told this will take years. I get really depressed. How did you cope?
