Hi @rladdley
i had bilateral mastectomies with no reconstruction in February this year. I had her2 BC in one breast but I decided to get rid of both.

My husband and I have been married for 30 plus years but he was happy to go with whatever I wanted. I guess as the others have said you need to be happy with your decision.
