Hi TKS. Excellent & comprehensive advice from the womyn above! I'd just like to add to @Eastmum's advice to talk to everyone before you make your decisions. If you are interested in breast reconstruction I was told the best outcomes are achieved when you reconstruct at the same time as you have your mastectomy. Of course this isn't always possible due to the kind of treatments required, but do gather as much info as you can.
Some people are OK to be flat (and fabulous!) but I was like you and could not bear the thought of having nothing in the chesticle region. It's made a big difference to me to have an immediate reconstruction. It's not always easy, heck none of this BC business is, but being comfortable with your decisions helps a great deal. We are always the best advocates for ourselves :) K xox
