Hello Millsy. I had a double mastectomy and DIEP reconstruction on 11th October. The surgery was not a walk in the park but considering 9 hours of surgery and 5 days in hospital I am doing really well. I'm back at work and exercising daily. I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2016 in my left breast (I had a lumpectomy)and then again in 2018 in my right so it just felt like the right decision to have the double mastectomy. I'm happy with the decision and I hope you come to a decision you feel happy with too. Wishng you all the very best.
