Thank you everybody for your response. I feel like I just can't get a clear picture of this and my surgery is set for next wedneday. I am meeting with the plastic doc tomorrow and have a list of questions but their is nothing like talking to women who understand!

@Suzanne....I do not have much body fat and I also do cross fit along with heavy lifting/running/cycling. I don't care about the scare but just can't figure how they actually get muscle off the lat when it seems like its all ribs!! I am also concerned about the lympademia because of the previous aux disection.
Also I have noticed that some say NO DRAINS! I had drains in my first surgery, I don't think this plastic doc will let me go with no drains now if I do the lat flap is this the new trend?
