I think any surgery makes you nervous.There is no getting around it,just stay busy ++till wednesday.I think you are very brave having the other boob off but it will be peace of mind in the long run and no more mammograms.I think I'd be abit anxious about having reconstruction of any sort but at least the expanders are a quick operation.I can't have them cos I've had radiation in the past and my skin hasn't much elastic.I'd have to have the Diep recon.and that scares me.It's 16mths since my mastectomy and I still find it hard to come to terms with a missing boob.I hope all goes well for you on Wednesday and that you end up with nice boobs -you deserve it.Will be thinking of you so let us know how you go.
