Hi @El.mumof2, well done! You have just accomplished a huge step towards your recovery from this awful disease that we all on this site share. I had a bilateral skin sparing mastectomy with immediate silicone implant reconstruction on the 8th March. I had all the lymph nodes removed from my left side. Concentrate on your recovery over the next week and try not to think too far ahead. You will feel better when you get a plan of what's required next week, but you can't do anything about that now, so try not to worry about it. No matter what, you are strong enough and we are all here to help however we can. Best wishes to you
