What to do

Thanks Primek for the information

This is what I was wanting to know.

In my first appointment with breast Dr, I was told I had to have mastectomy, I did query flap reconstructions and she told me she used expander and prosthesis, Once I had expander I could not have flap Reconstruction done. It was at the beginning and I was still getting my head around having cancer.

As mentioned above after my second visit I went home and researched. Now after talking to breast nurse, the breast Dr is telling me I can have flap reco done after expander put in. This was only a phone conversation and I had so many questions when off the phone.

I was looking up DIEP, is this where the fat is used only? it looks pretty natural. Are you public or private? I'm wondering if there are limits on what I can have done in public.

I'm not even sure who to talk to with this information, I would have loved to see about all I could have done earlier, without feeling rushed to get this information. I would have thought the Dr's who do this sorts of reco would discuss what can and can't be done, making my decision easier, earlier in the piece.

Many thanks this info has helped immensely
