Hi @Scorpio101, I was diagnosed in 2016 at 56. Had left mastectomy, chemo, radiotherapy. I wanted the other breast removed at the time but my surgeon said it wasn’t necessary. I hate being lopsided, would rather have none but am now having surgery next month. Having right breast removed & double reconstruction using belly fat. Both oncologists are against it saying my risk is low & tried to discourage me. I have cycles of pain in that breast & am constantly being checked so at least I won’t have that worry anymore & as I am having surgery anyway I don’t want to regret the decision later. I have spoken to a lot of women who have had it done with no regrets.
