Well, I’m booked in for a mastectomy on August 1st, with radiotherapy afterwards and then The reconstruction. Has anyone else had this? And if so, what can I realistically expect? I’ve got to see the BCC on July 17th to go through everything and my last chemo is Thursday this week (woo hoo!!) - if anyone can offer any kind of help please, I’d appreciate it - thank you ?
Hi bettymoo
Whilst you wait for the other users to reply with their experiences you might find it helpful to talk things through with a member of staff on the helpline. Here you are able to share your concerns and questions with someone who will offer you a listening ear as well as support and information. The number to call is 0808 800 6000 and lines are open Monday to Friday 9 to 5pm and Saturday 10 to 2pm.

What does it mean when people say they have “expanders” in after a mx please, and how long do they stay in for?
Anyone?
