So pleased to hear your reconstruction went so well Christie!! Who was your surgeon? You were so lucky to be able to do it all publicly as many wait a long time and them get trainee plastic surgeons doing part of the surgery. Often the results aren't as successful. So you should promote your surgeon and hospital so others can avoid the expense of going privately. I spent $18K in gaps for my double DIEP. Have just had nipple reconstruction 3 weeks ago so another $2K for that and revisions. Mind you, I'm VERY happy with my new boobs!! (And the flat tum!)
All the best
