Hi Chris,
I am so thrilled for you, that after a chosen double mastectomy you are thrilled with your new boobs. What a sense of relief you must have in preventing a new breast cancer. I had a diagnosis of early breast cancer in August last year, I had a lumpectomy and some nodes were taken but the cancer had not spread at all, I also completed a course of radiation. As my cancer was Estrogen ++ I am now on Arimidex, fortunately to date with no side effects.
My problem is, that like every other woman on here, I am petrified of it returning. This thought is always on my mind and I have given a lot of thought to having a double mastectomy. Is this something that you can request of your surgeon as a preventative, or are there certain criteria you must meet before this would even be considered? If you could fill me in that would be great.
Once again, congratulations on the new boobs, I am sure you feel a new woman. I commend you on your brave decision, but what a relief it must be!
