Implant reconstruction

Hi, I’m just starting my journey and am having a mastectomy with implant reconstruction. Would like to talk to anyone who has some positives to say  about reconstruction.

    I'm sorry to hear that you're just starting your journey with breast cancer. We have many women here on Cancer Chat who will understand some of what you may be feeling and experiencing. Hopefully they will post to share their stories with you soon. 

    In the meantime I wanted to give you this link to information on the Cancer Research UK website about breast reconstruction using implants as well as this link to the Breast Cancer Now Someone Like Me service. 

    If at any point you want to chat things through with one of our nurses you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm where I'm sure they will be happy to offer any advice, information and support they can. 

    I hope that your upcoming surgery goes smoothly Oscardog23. Keep in touch and let us know how you get on. 

    Best wishes,
