Ceesun,
I did not have immediate reconstruction.
Truthfully, I did not feel "amputated"... I felt relief. I was able to move ahead with chemo and return to work (my priorities at the time, my Mom was end stage w same) rather swiftly. Seeing my scars everyday goaded me into becoming more active with BC research and advocacy.
I JUST had stage 1 of my recon 7 weeks ago after waiting 2 1/2 years. No regrets.
Ceesun, I wish you nothing but the best and hope you too will feel relief (perhaps tinged with a bit of sadness).
(((((((CEESUN))))))))
Hugs,Marcia
