Hi there I was wondering if anybody who has had a Mestectomy with expander implants can actually tell me the after effects after the surgery as I’m quite anxious about it. I was diagnosed with breast cancer in June, this year  which come as quite a shock really but I just want this cancer out of me now. Not  known whether I’ll have chemo or  radiotherapy yet till 3 weeks after surgery. I am HER positive & oestogen receptor positive so really don’t know at present. If anybody could let me know if thay have had a Mestectomy & know about it more,would be lovely to chat to you with kind regards from Mel.

  • HI , I can't help but I see your post hasn't been answered yet and there maybe ladies around now who can help you by me 'bumping' your post back to the top.

    Kindest wishes, Lesley x

    Hi I have had this surgery and I would definitely recommend it. Although I'm certain my implant is not expandable. Mine is to save the skin and it was definitely a success.
