It’s a very good and fair question @templar-1310 . I certainly would have thought hard and deeply about having both removed had it been an option. Partly to not have to have another operation, also for certainty ref recurrence (although it can recur anywhere else including the chest wall!). I’m not sure which way I’d have jumped. I found the surgery not to be a problem and got over it very quickly. I guess there’s always more of a risk with a longer operation (twice as long I assume!), two wounds etc. So it’s a difficult one to call. Sorry for fence sitting! I’m mid way through 12 rounds of chemo plus targeted therapy (HER2+ BC) which is obviously all aimed at preventing recurrence. That’s taking up most of my wavelength atm.
