@TinaW, I remember you from our breast reconstruction group, I think we had our recons around the same time. I had a bilateral TRAM. You are right it is a big surgery, but also doable. I am so very sorry your implants did not work out for you. Did you have radiation? I know that can be an issue. I totally get why you have reached a point where you just want the implants out. I would be the same. I wish you all the best with your op next week. Many people like @SoldierCrab don’t have recons. The thing with recons is that it is always something you can revisit down the track if you want. I had my recon 2 1/2 Year’s after my mastectomy.
You have been through so much. Sending you lots of love and hugs, and all the best next week.
