Hi @eddiek, I had a mastectomy in 2016, then chemo & radiation. In 2019 at 59 I had the other breast removed & double Diep. Like you I was quite active & being fit before surgery helped with recovery. It was a 12 hour surgery but other than the first week being difficult every day got a little bit easier. I was back to work after a month, driving & back at the gym. Back to dragon boat racing at 2 months. As suggested join the breast reconstruction group as there are many positive stories there.
