I just got my recon surgery date this week - had left Mod Rad Mast 10/04. Wish I'd done both, then I probably wouldn't bother with the recon. I'm having prophylactic mast with bilateral DIEP recon (that sounds SO technical!) June 21st. Vowed not to consider it until this year, but I hate being lopsided. Would rather have nothing at all. Hope that I feel more "even" after this major surgery, then I'll be done and won't have to worry about the "good" side every 6 months. This is a personal decision and you will do what's right for YOU. Good luck!
