Breasts after conservation
Hi ladies and gents , just wanted to ask a question about getting back to normal after bilateral Wide excision and node removal , so far ( touch wood ) things have been good and I ' only ' needed rad...
I chose a bilateral mastectomy and reconstruction which actually has helped me cope. I totally get it though, yes there is no shame in your scars , but never be ashamed to grieve over your loss. It doesn't matter that it wasn't a mastectomy...it is just as traumatic. Be kind to you. You will eventually become used to the new you, doesn't mean you have to love it though. Cry when you need.
