Feelings about single mastectomy

I had a double at the end of March. I feel safer with the tissue gone, plus they discovered cancer in my left breast that they didn't know was there. So I feel lucky. I currently have tissue expanders in, that's a bigger deal than I thought it would be. The drains where in a long time. I needed another surgery to fix a expander that wasn't positioned right. It's a lot to go through but you'll get there.

Thank you!! I’m glad to hear having then double was the right call for you!! That is definitely a lot to go through especially with the additional surgery! I hope your reconstruction goes well and you’ll be feeling back to normal soon!!
