Thinking ahead.
Hi ladies, thinking ahead at this stage. Wondering if anyone has had a mastectomy on one breast and using a external breast prothesis for the other breast. All replies will be greatly appreciated. ...
It gets better once the surgery is done, knowing most of the cancer and hopefully all is gone. Personally I was happy with the implant recon at time of mastectomy And was delighted to awake with breasts much more pertier than I had. I've got 1 fill and changeover to go. My durgeons used a matrix sling and filled 3/4 full...knowing I most likely wouldn't need radiotherapy. ..which I didn't and knowing also I lived 500k away from him...so I have had mo fills since....1st review is after chemo completion. I chose a teardrop shsoe and the tisdue expander is teardrop shsp so loojs pretty good. If interested I can post a pic.
