I am leaning toward unilateral and just going flat on that side - this cancer is a recurance after 5.5 years and it seems mastectomy is the recommendation .... but reconstruction talks are off-putting

I had unilateral surgery 2 years ago. Opted for no reconstruction. I have a breast prosthesis for when my clothing choice calls for it. When at home I don’t use prosthesis. You should do whatever you are comfortable doing. I felt like I had enough to deal with after surgery-drains, lymphedema, radiation, chemo.
