I had a mastectomy on my right side over two years ago. I spoke to a couple of plastic surgeons about options, but in the end I decided I simply wasn't up to having more surgery. My body had been through enough and then some. After I made the decision, I felt incredibly relieved. Now, two years later, I am actually planning to see one of the plastic surgeons this week - mainly because I want to wear whatever I feel like during the summer. I'm only interested in the least invasive surgery - implants - which has the fewest complications and fastest recovery. We'll see how I feel this coming week after talking to the surgeon - I may decide I want to wait longer. The bottom line is you'll know when and if you're ready.
Best,
Monica
