I have just had a double mastectomy and immediate diep flap reconstruction following recurrent breast cancer having been free for 12 years. Really interested to talk to anyone who has had the same operation.

Hello PN29
I hope that you're recovering well from your surgery. It's a big operation that you've been through and I know that recovery can take a good few months but I hope that things are progressing well for you.
I can't see that we've any members who have recently posted to share that they have been through this surgery. However, if you'd like to use the forum search function at the top of the page and look for the term "DIEP" you'll be able to read lots of other posts where women have shared their experiences with this process.
I hope that you can connect with others who have an understanding of the journey that you're on and that things continue to progress well for you.
Best wishes,
Jenn
