Anyone requested a double mastectomy?

Hey @_jm - I totally relate. Do you mind me asking why you had a hysterectomy?

The loss of one’s womanhood is what’s hitting me the hardest. The hair loss, losing my fertility and now one breast. I’ve explained multiple times to the surgeon and the team that I don’t think / feel like I can do it. The impact psychologically terrifies me. (Chemotherapy absolutely destroyed me physically and mentally) & there were times it was scary.

I genuinely have no idea what to do / how to handle it as I’m aware of the risks in delaying but equally see both options as incredibly high risk to my health and wellbeing.

Much :heart:
