Thank you for sharing. I have heard so many what ifs...? I am leaning toward the double mastectomy at this point. Any complications with it and how was your recovery?

Hi Lisa!
I would say it went fine. It is a process, but after 2 weeks I went back to work and I am a physical therapist. Of course with some precautions. I had the expansors and after finishing chemotherapy, I had surgery for my new boobs. The whole process, including chemotherapy, is not a piece of cake, but it is possible. Wishing you the best and a smooth process.
