Re: Prophylactic Mastectomy?

Hi Funmom!
I felt exactly the same way, so I had a bilateral mastectomy and reconstruction with implants in July and am so pleased that I had it done. I just felt I needed to do it so that I felt in my mind that I had done everything possible. It wasn't an easy operation and took a good while to get over it, but the relief after getting them removed was immense. Hope this helps! Have a lovely Christmas, Emma xx
