Hi All,
I was diagnosed in January 2015, no sign of recurrence so far. My MO and I were talking about reconstruction, so I made an appt with the Plastic Surgeon. He recommends (due to my age...38) that I do the DIEP flap tissue reconstruction. Basically moving tissue from my stomach to my chest.
I was really excited at first, but now I am getting really nervous. My reconstruction is scheduled for 12/7/16.
Would any of you mind sharing the following:
1) Did you get DIEP flap reconstruction, if so, knowing what you know now, would you do it again?
2) How far out from diagnosis did you elect to get reconstruction?
Thanks!!!
Steph
