Hi. I dont believe surgeon's are recommending double mastectomies. Mine didn't but she supported me in my decision. No choice in a single. My decision was decided after I had an mri on the healthy breast. It came back 75% dense tissue, and they think that is how my tumours were missed by regular mammograms. I just didn't want that risk. The girls I have chemo with have asked for mastectomies but were told no. The surgeons seem to advice breast sparing. I guess it all depends on what sort of cancer it is. I hope you get some answers.
