Sally, that's great news to hear you are done and through it!! The anxiety prior can be horrendous, I know I was shocking leading into my mastectomy/diep flap recon. I do think we imagine it to be worse than it is which isnt a bad thing I think! Makes a huge difference as you say if you manage to escape that dreaded nausea and if you can take pain relief. The Diep flap too sat high at first but it does settle LOL, and eventhough it had its added tummy surgery have bounced back really well and quickly! Wishing you all the best for your pathology, that does seem to take awhile, let us know how you go! Hugs Melinda xo
