Hi 

im new to the page and have been directly to this group by a friend.  I am trying to make contact with others who have had TUG reconstruction after a mastectomy.  In particular i am trying to find out how it will affect me as a cyclist and runner.   I am hearing conflicting reviews on this.   my op is in 2.5 weeks and im now really worried im making the wrong decision

  • Hi  and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.

    The online community is divided up into different support groups, so I'm going to recommend that you join the breast cancer group, which is a great place to ask questions and share experiences and hopefully connect with someone who has had TUG reconstruction.

    To join, just click on the link I've created and, once you've joined, you can start a new post in the same way as you did here, and join in with existing conversations by clicking on reply.

    It would be great if you could pop something about your diagnosis and treatment so far into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
