Profilatic mascetomy

Thanks Kell kind of you to respond so quickly. I had the implants under the muscle both sides great to hear you have been told full workout. Leaves me puzzled as I am restricted for all time to non strenuous arm movements and definitely no hand weights. That was more about dislodgement of Implants and a bit about lymphodemia. I will do as my PS Says but it limits my gym work to cardio as I have said. Even swimming seems to be a no as it involves Pectoral muscles? If there is anyone out there that has had problems due to exercise after profilactic mastectomy lymph nodes and under the muscle reconstruction I would really appreciate the how too of exercise. Thanks Kell and hope to hear from others with after BC experience. Coldcapper

Hi Coldcapper, this is a quick one but happy to respond later. I've had the identical op as you have had but have not done nipples yet.To busy!! My last of for exchange was July this yr . My ps wanted me to wait 6 wks for gentle exercises and then at twelve wks full gym work with no restrictions.I always listen to my body though , and even if I was able to do something b4, if there is any hint of the wrong pain I stop . Hope that helps. Kell xx
