In pursuit of plastics

Jan 20, 2012

Well I spent the day at Sunnybrook dealing with the speed bump I encountered. . .I qualify for a "redo" of my mastectomy except that this time, since I have no active disease it will be a prophylactic one. . .waiting list.  Pre-existing conditions and previous surgeries mean that reconstruction using an abdominal flap is a no go.  Immediate reconstruction is also not an option.  My options are these.  Bilateral Prophylactic Mastectomy with possible 2 staged reconstruction once healing has occurred, with the understanding that I could possibly never have reconstruction or continue with hyper vigilance. . .I have 3 months to decide.
