Re: RECONSTRUCTION warning, wish i knew
loislane - Dr Hofer did my surgery so it was technically well performed. I seem to be a bad case. I would have done 1 diep breast if I was informed of the complications and how much re-hab I would have to do. I have heard of women who do 1 diep and 1 implant. It is what it is now so I have to deal with it.
I am only 44 (42 at diagnosis) so I just couldn't see living without reconstruction but of course hindsight is 20/20 and I wish I would have just done the msx's or at the least a different type of reconstruction
