reconstruction questions
Hi ladies-
Now that I am 2/3 through chemo- Yippeee- I am looking at reconstruction. I went from surgery directly into chemo. I did not have expanders put in right away. Did I overlook something? I still have to go through radiation, but I am wondering if doctors neglected to give me option of expanders immediately when I had.surgery. has anyone had reconstruction after radiation? How did it work? At the time of.the surgery they said I was a candidate for the flap reconstruction, ie tummy tuck and new boobs. Any one have this surgery after radiation?
