Plastic Surgeon today...was cool and calm...now petrified and teary...

Oh dear Melinda, I also had radiation and only 3 years ago, so my prospects of surgery are possibly the same as yours.  I go to my breast surgeon on the 8 Dec, so I'll have to wait to see what he says. I certainly wasn't thinking of an implant either. It's pretty unsettling when you make a decision (a big one at that) to have a reconstruction and things go pear shaped.  Take care  and remember we are beautiful. x
