Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.      
How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Hi, I have been doing research, reading...

Hi,

I have been doing research, reading experiences, forums and Q&A in this site. And I am thankful there is a site like this. I am turning 30 in a week, and I am scheduled for bilateral mastectomy and immediate reconstruction on April 28. I am very nervous, scared and my anxiety level is getting high each day. I am petite only 5'1 in height and weighs 108 lbs. My pre-op appt is on April 7. I decided to write here to get some feedback and answers as to what to expect with this surgery and recovery time. Though I know my PS would discuss all this on my pre-op appt. I am worried about the recovery and all that because I have a 3 year old daughter. Sleeping at night after surgery makes me worry because she doesn't sleep unless I'm beside her.

Anyways, any feedback or comments will be very much appreciated.
Thanks
