Question reconstruction- deconstruction

A couple of questions;
I am being given the hard sell treatment by my surgeon for reconstruction of my breasts. I feel that being stage 3a and 7 lymph nodes involved makes having breasts just not important to me. Survival is the real issue. I have heard many in the waiting rooms talk about how unhappy they are with the reconstructions they have. Anyone with differing views?

Also they are talking about removing my ovaries, I think it would make more sence to just do a hysterectomy. I am post menopausal and don't need the equipment for anything and it would be one less site to worry about getting cancer in right? Wondered if that line of thinking makes sence to anyone else. Thanks, Kim
