Hi, there doesn't seem to be many LUG flap ladies around, so I am reaching out for tips, advice and experiences with regards to your surgery. I have just had a skin-saving mastectomy and am now planning my next move. I am concerned this will damage my legs, I like to walk and exercise a lot and don't want to compromise this. Thank you so much ! xxxx
Hi, I’m one of the champions here in this group and whilst I don't have the experience you are seeking, I just wanted to acknowledge your post. I hope someone who has been through this will be along soon to support you. Best wishes
