Exercise post mastectomy

I had double mastectomy with LD flap reconstruction. Anyone else had the same op? What exercise did you find helped post op? I’m thinking swimming will be good for my whole body? Unsure when it’s ok to start? 

Hello @Hazell1964  

I would suggest that you try and speak to your BCN or one of the physiotherapists about what you should be OK to do now. 
Personally I had a WLE and was advised not to cycle more I think down to safety at not being able brake safely, I also drove (very briefly out of necessity) prior to my six week check and it felt quite uncomfortable which made me appreciate again the advice I had been given was more out of a safety perspective than discomfort. 
As a general rule you will probably be advised to listen to your body and don’t push yourself too much too soon
