Hi everyone, I’m a new girl (49) with high-grade 4cm DCIS and a choice to make between a) implant only b) implant and own tissue and c) own tissue only.
I’m a FF and reluctant to decrease too much, though pleased about losing my droop. And because of my history (previous radiotherapy for Hodgkin’s lymphoma) I also need to consider risk-reducing mastectomy of my other breast and/or the best way of adjusting that breast to match my a) b) or c) choice on the DCIS breast.
It’s a bit complicated! I think there are lots of you out there who are further on in your journeys, and it would be lovely to hear from you with any insights or advice. I’m particularly keen to hear about what it is like to have implants. Are they totally weird? Thank you all.
