Hi everyone I am having surgery today, I am having masectomy with temporary reconstruction, a tissue expander, then having radiotherapy. Any advice would be appreciated. Many thanks xxx

    Woman I was in chemo with last week had an expander and said her only issue was having to move it from under her armpit occasionally!  Joy But she did report no discomfort. Best of luck today xxx

    Hi Shaz52,

    I hope all went well with your surgery. I will follow the same path soon awaiting Oncotype results to start radiotherapy. Have you already started yours? Any feedback? Thanks.
