Does anyone have any advise for when I request a second masectomy being a 40E I am very aware of my size and shape and that people are looking at me. Mentally it is draining me and making me ill. Any advice welcome. Thank you ladies x
Ollybobs, i’m sending you a Very VERY large hug. I’m assuming you’re had a MX without reconstruction, how long ago??
I’m asking because I was an H cup and as you say “am very aware of my size and shape and that people are looking at me” so i opted for MX with immediate reconstruction. So now i have an H cup and a D cup and feel very lope sided and it’s very noticeble.
I wasn’t given a prosthesis but i have been told that when everything settles down i can have a reduction to my healthy breast. However, i don’t see my surgeon until early 2019.
I suggest you call your MDT and tell them how you feel xx
Hi Roxanne. Big hug on its way back to you. Sounds like you are in a similar situation. My Right mx was June last year. Had first mammogram Tuesday and will have an appointment to see surgeon within next 2 weeks. Can you ask to see your surgeon earlier?
I will let you know how I get on if you like. Hope things improve for you xx
