Mixed Feelings from Surgeon Review
I had an appointment with my surgeon yesterday - the first since finishing active treatment. I went in knowing it was just a review and I had my usual list of questions with me. I'm not really sure ...
It’s a lot to take in isn’t it. My (new) surgeon doesn’t think we need to remove my left boob as it all feels normal and there was never anything found in that one - obviously she will keep a close eye on it - have to book for my first ultrasound and mammogram before I see her again in February. She also bought up reconstruction which I am in 2 minds about. If it’s not perfect it will annoy me more than having nothing there and I’m not sure I want scarring in other parts of my body that are more visible if they need to take tissue or skin. I have decided I’m going to go for a couple of consultations and see what I think. I’ll save that for next year though - 3 surgeries is enough for this year. Cost is also a concern for me. So much to take into consideration!!
