Hi Geraldine, I can relate although mine are just small scars, they still are a constant reminder to me. Actually my port bothers me more than the scars. I will probably never be able to get it out. I have absolutely no idea why your surgeon would be against reconstruction, has he ever given you a valid reason as to why he''s "uncomfortable" with it. I thought that most women who had masectomies, had reconstruction work done. Is this the only surgeon in your area? I think I would look for another if this one can't understand the way you feel...which by the way is pefectly logical. ..sherryg683
