I had a mastectomy in 2017 for high grade DCIS.. I was advised to have a mastectomy - at the time I asked for a double mastectomy but was told no as the other side was fine. I offered to pay private but was also told no
i had reconstructive surgery - implant. This was painful, tight and u comfortable and then it ruptured. I had to wait 4 year for it to be replaced.
since the replacement the pain is the same and the nurses believe a capsule has formed again (awaiting doctors appointment)
my question is why can I not have the other side removed - this would mean no more mammograms, no more surgery’s, no more painful implants.
Celebrities can have this done, people can have preventative surgery without even having it and people changing gender can have them removed.
this is really affecting me and my quality of life
