Hi Maree, I am scheduled for a proph mast and immediate reconstruction of BOTH breasts on June 21st - just 3 weeks away (yikes!). Like everyone else who posted, I don't want the worry of it returning in my "good" breast, and I also want the symmetry. I'm having the DIEP flap recon at UCLA. It's a one shot deal so for me the decision was pretty easy. My husband, on the other hand.... but that's a whole other post LOL!
Good luck with your decision.
