Lisa and Sheila:

How far out from your diagnosis were you when you had the expander placed? Was your orginal tumor large and your surgical margins clean and did you have any posiitive lymph nodes? I am 18 months out from diagnosis and have been considering reconstruction. My gallbladder has also almost stopped functioning and my physician thinks I should have it removed as I have had four gallbaldder attacks in the last four months but I worry about reoccurence even after gallballder surgery as it is on the same side as my mastectomy.
