    Little more info please
    Hi Brenda did you have a mascetomy or a lumpectomy? I had a lumpectomy then reconstruction/reduction. Lots of sisters here have had a mascetomy and reconstruction. There are so many different ways of doing it. If you will give us a little more info on what you plan to have done I am sure someone can help you.

    Lets try this again
    Brenda this is such a busy board that the threads are moving really fast. Why don't you start a new thread and put the words Reconstruction after mascetomy -help or need info on reconstruction after mascetomy something like that that will catch the eye of ones who have had this particular surgery. This is really a good place to come for help and support. Don't give up yet.

    Hugs
