Hi, nor do I, I think it’s just the technical stuff. How did you find it? Have you got any tips of how to cope with it? Any advice would be welcome. ... View more

I’ve just come back from seeing my surgeon. I asked about a double mastectomy and two implants so boobs would match. He says the NHS won’t pay for this kind of surgery, especially as I have one healthy breast. Interested to hear if other surgeons are willing to do it. ... View more

Hi, I am new to this forum and having problems replying to any of your posts. Hopefully the moderator will help me sort it out. I just wanted to ask if anyone here has gone for the implant reconstruction option recently. I have been offered a wide flap implant only reconstruction with a reduction & uplift on the other side. I’m still a bit in shock, having been diagnosed at the end of August and now joined this rollercoaster ride. ... View more

Wow, me too! Initial diagnosis on 28th August I was told I did not have cancer as DCIS, then when I saw the breast surgeon a few days later he said it was early stage breast cancer! Not only that, but I needed a complete mastectomy.  Now seen another surgeon regarding reconstruction and it all seems so unreal. Due to see the breast cancer nurse today so hopefully I’ll start to take things in a bit. When I got home yesterday I felt really angry about it all. Different messages, and now who knows whether it has spread or not.  ... View more
