Having Nerve split after L D double mastectomies

Hi Ladies,

 I had bilateral mastectomy in July after being diagnosed with the Braca2 gene in January 2019 following two primary breast cancers one in 2009 and the other in 2017. I also had immediate Latimus dorsi reconstruction . Since having the op in July I have been in constant discomfort from the muscle contracting. I saw my surgeon on Friday and has booked me in for February to have the thoracordorsal nerve split, apparently it feeds the LD muscle, therefore should stop this happening ??.

 

I would like to hear from anyone who has had this done and tell me how they are now also does it stop the iron bra feeling and will I feel normal again ??? I would be very grateful for someone else’s experiences although I do know we are all different.

 

Thakyou for reading this ladies X
