WORTH IT$100
Though I still have one more surgery to go to complete my reconstructed breasts (this would be the nipple reconstruction then aeriola tattooing) I am already so pleased and amazed at Dr. Rumalla's very thorough work.

Due to an unrelated illness, I got a bit behind but was finally able to finish the nipple reconstruction and lipo revision to my breast cancer reconstruction on November 30th...amazing results!!...Thank you again Dr. Rumalla for such beautiful work!...I am healing nicely and look forward to the finishing tattooing next year. Please if you are reading this and have chosen breast reconstruction after mastectomy, I highly recommend Dr. Rumalla and his wonderful assistants and staff.

I dont understand and never once has she shown me puctures. She is the only doc in my coubty who does recon. my ins wont let me go out of county. I just filed bk. I cant make over 709 a month to keep ins. I wonder no if I did the right thing but too late now.

As luck would have it, my cancer came back in March 2013 and I had another regime of chemo and radiation too which I did not have the first time...needless to say, the radiation ruined my new left breast and the only option to fix this rock hard ball is the lattissimus dorsi flap...if I choose to proceed, Dr. Rumalla will be my choice!

I, too, had recurring CA of Left breast. I had DCIS in the right with lumpectomy and radiation….one year later, DCIS left, with lumpectomy and radiation, 4 years later, recurrence in left. Mastectomies with lat flap reconstruction and implants. This was 9 years ago. Now I am getting the implants out and a lift with some fat grafting. I am looking forward to getting the toxic implants OUT! I have lost 20 pounds since they were put in with NO change in my bust size. I am totally top heavy and it is affecting my posture and ability to engage in sports. I am soon to be 70 and don't want to get into my dotage with big boobs. I hope you're doing okay. The lat flap deal is a pain but with lots of work, it has worked out well. I think radiation was the worst thing. Hind sight is 20/20.

where do I look for pictures of tattooing and nipples. She doesnt have aby puctures to show me. (my doc)
I LOVE the pictures you posted - you look great, and have such a sassy attitude about you! Do you have your nipple surgery scheduled yet? Would love to hear how you are feeling about that.
Sorry to hear an illness delayed things for you. I'm glad you had a successful surgery - hoping the tattooing goes great for you!!
