Hi Hulos, the beauty of reconstruction is you don't need to do it right away. I had mine 2 1/2 years post mastectomy. For me living in the tropical heat of FNQ saw me struggling not to be able to wear the singlet tops etc that I loved and the prosthesis was hot! Having said that, I am not sure what I would have done had I not decided to remove my other breast. At that time I thought well i'm having surgery so why not do the recon at the same time.There is no right or wrong, just what is right for you.
I wish you all the best.
