Hi all
Ive had a mastectomy and reconstruction on the 9th May.
I'm wondering should i be able to feel my implant and should it be kinda lumpy and sore?
Lying in bed worrying it shouldn't feel the way it does and that something is wrong.
Could somebody please tell me am i just panicing?
Thank you in advance

Hmm,
I don't think that it should feel sore. Maybe ring your bcn and ask for an appointment with the surgeon. Does it feel lumpy all over? My feels smooth but at one edge there is a little lumpy bit which I had checked out and it is scar tissue.
Get it checked out.
