One thing I forgot to say - I feel that my prognosis isn’t great because of the extent of spread in my lymph nodes and so time feeling well and normal is important to me. If I hadn’t had lymph involvement and felt like I could have a normal life span in front of me ( I am an otherwise fit healthy 47 year old) then I might feel very differently and want reconstruction. Circumstances play a big role is decisions you will make. What are pros and cons for one person will be completely different for someone else. Best wishes with your decision making.
