Hmm, well she may feel the radiation will be better to do before reconstruction, hopefully someone can answer the delay with reconstruction question. I hope you're right handed. taking out so many lymph nodes means you'll have to be very careful with that arm and if you ever prick it or get a bite on it, you will have to quickly clean it and put an anti-bacterial liquid on it. You should definitely have lymph massages after the surgery and learn to do exercises yourself.
You're at the top HER2 hospital so you are in good hands.
take care,
health and happiness
