Double mestectomy
Good morning,
I'm interested to hear your reasons and experiences in deciding to have a full mestectomy. I had my left breast removed over 2 yrs ago and have experienced nerve pain on the chest wall and down the left arm ( Axillory clearance) I can't wait to remove my bra at the end of the day. I'm leaning more to having the other breast removed for comfort levels and to reduce the axiety at momogram time. My mindset is why have reconstruction ( Not able to have an implant as I've had radiotheraphy) so the option is removing skin from my shoulder and making a breast. I have heard this can cause more pain..
Have a great day
Donna
