Hiya
Just wondering if anyone has had a breast reduction after a right side masectomy over 15 months ago.
Have a follow up appointment hopefully next week, if it does not get cancelled for the third time.
Wondering if it's worth it, as I am quite large chested.
Regards
BoobyJ
Hi Booby J
I can't help with any experiences of whether to have a breast reduction or not but I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. This is probably because this is such an active group that it has slipped off the first page before anyone with the experience you need has seen it. Replying to you will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussion list.
All the best with whatever you decide to do.

Hi I had a left therapeutic mammoplasty and sentinel lymph node biopsy and right breast reduction done two weeks ago surgeon chose this for me for my type of cancer etc . And I was 38 E and he gave me lift and breast tuck on both breast at the same time and the difference already i feel is so good . I know not same as yourself but thought with me also large breast might help the lift is definitely worth it . Only you can decide the right thing for your body . I’m Northern Ireland and was done same day 4,5 hours operation maybe each hospital different. I get my results tomorrow to see wat treatment etc I may need . Wishing you all the best with your choice x
