Hi Minnieme, where do you live? In Sydney there are some great Drs who do reconstruction on public patients, and often the wait isn't too long. Maybe 7 to 12 months, but certainly not years. It isn't as though this is plastic surgery for vanity. A new boob should not be in the same class as breast augmentation, and so perhaps you should see your GP, or your breast surgeon and ask for a referral. I am so delighted with my implants, and glad that I don't need to wear a prosthesis anymore. I was only a B cup amd that was bad enough. Because I had a double mastectomy, I now have 2 new silicone implants about the same size that my old boobs were, and I am pretty happy with them. I will still need to have some nipples tattooed on, and this will probably happen soon. Good luck and I hope you find someone who will help you soon. Love Chris xx
