And so it begins!

Hello Elmreed 1

1. i too am in a similar position to you, I’m 42 idc pro/est + her 2_ grade 3. I too will have a masectomy with no reconstruction, I’m absolutely petrified, I can’t get my head around it either it’s a living hell. I too am a large cup size, put I just didn’t want all the extra surgery on top of everything else, there is lovely support in this group with advice from ladies. X

Thank you for your reply. Do you have a date for surgery?  

Hi Elmreed 1

I have surgery in just over a weeks time, I’ve had some helpful replies from ladies that have gone through the surgery already.I was the same after being told my diagnosis and I was going to have a reconstruction but it’s all the extra surgery involved, like you say at the moment it’s getting rid of the bad stuff that needs to be gone.

I hope all goes well, I have my pre-op on Monday so will know more about what’s happening on Friday.  I’m fine most of the time and then night time comes and my mind wanders.  I hope all goes well with your surgery and recovery.
