Thanks a lot Donna!
I had to take the genetic tests done since they suspect I may be a carrier of the BRCA gene.
The lymph nodes biopsy came back negative
(fingers crossed it will remain the same after surgery).
My next step - waiting for genetic results and decide about a surgery.
When I asked about a plastic surgeon the surgeon mentioned that most reconstructions are done by the "breast surgeon" . This is very different from what I heard about the procedure back home.
May I ask how have you found the process in the public system ? what do I need to know/ask ? who should be performing the procedure ? how can I decide what type of procedure is the best for me ?
Thank you so much lovely ladies !
