Awaiting mastectomy and reconstruction
Hi Ladies,
Haven't been on here in a while, so I thought I'd put up a quick post! Im currently awaiting surgery for mastectomy and reconstruction of the left breast which will be performed this Fri...
Hi Rachael,
Wow that has come around quickly. Wishing you all the best for Friday. It all does sound scary when the dr goes into details. Just remember lots of us have been there and are here to hold your hand. If I remember from your previous post you are having a tissue transfer surgery. The first few days are the hardest, but also a bit of a blur and there will be lots of pain relief available. Once you are up and moving each day gets better. When you feel up to it or if you need more information request membership to the breast reconstruction page. There is lots of information and support available there from others who have had similar surgery.
all the best.
Paula :)
