Bi Lateral Mastectomy & Laptorso Op

Hi Alysia, I had right mastectomy last April and had to delay reconstruction for radiotherapy. In august I had the left mastectomy and combined it with the lat dorsi on the right side and tissue expanders in both sides. Currently inflating the expanders. Looking forward to replacement with implants hopefully by end of this year. I found that all of my careful preparation and shopping for garments to wear post op were mainly wasted.. I woke up from surgery in a bra my surgeon provided and stayed in hospital for a week.. There was really no need to put any top on because it seems somebody is coming to check on you and take a look every half an hour anyway. When they want to look at your back taking your arm out of any type of top is awkward and painful. I just slept in the bras and had a dressing gown to put on over the top when I wanted to get up. I wish you well with this, I know how daunting it must be for you. Don't forget to feel the excitement that you're nearly finished, and although it's a big operation it's worth it.
