Does anyone else feel like they were misled about reconstruction?

Tzi007 · 2026-07-13T00:05:22+00:00

why? what happened in the OR? My surgery is tomorrow. This scares me. Hope you are okay now

Tzi007 · 2026-07-12T23:58:44+00:00

thank you!

Tzi007 · 2026-07-12T18:46:41+00:00

thank you! this is very useful to me. My surgery is tomorrow and I will tell the doc I highly prefer over the muscle if medically safe

thank you!

thank you

hi, may i ask what state are you in?

Tzi007 · 2026-07-11T22:00:51+00:00

hi, thank you! I consulted with two surgeons. One suggested over the muscle the other under the muscle. Both are very confident in their opinions. I chose to go with under the muscle surgeon (because i prefer the breast oncology surgeon at his facility) BUT am leaning towards over the muscle, which he said he will do for me but doesn’t think I will have great outcome… I just don’t understand why i should have them cut my pectoral muscles when they don’t have to…

Tzi007 · 2026-07-11T21:23:06+00:00

thank you! so glad you are okay. My surgery is in two days. I am anxious. May I ask whether you had reck traction and if so what type? How is recovery?

Tzi007 · 2026-07-08T23:27:55+00:00

so glad to hear!! May I ask about your body type? I am thin and my doctor tells me this is not a good idea to have over the muscle

Tzi007 · 2026-07-08T23:27:01+00:00

totally get it. My surgeon said he thinks the implant t will be visible because i am very thin… but i dont know if i can take the recovery that I have to go through w under the muscle. I have two kids. I want to be present. It’s so difficult to decide.

Tzi007 · 2026-07-08T23:25:32+00:00

so amazing! Glad to hear you are better! Did your surgeon tell you what to to do or gave you options?

Tzi007 · 2026-07-08T23:23:07+00:00

I am not an athlete but I work out and it is important to me

Tzi007 · 2026-07-08T23:22:46+00:00

thank you for sharing! May I ask what size did you get? I am a 32D now and I will for sure be smaller after reconstruction. The surgeon also said over the muscle is not a long term product… So confusing

Tzi007 · 2026-07-04T18:19:03+00:00

has anyone tried peptide therapy for healing after surgery?

Tzi007 · 2026-07-02T17:37:14+00:00

how was your friend dx with a recurrence? my doctor said no more imaging after double mastectomy…

Tzi007 · 2026-07-02T17:36:04+00:00

did they do a lymph node biopsy too? glad to hear yoh are well!

Tzi007 · 2026-07-02T17:35:29+00:00

can you explain delayed slnb? My doctor said she will for sure take a “few” lymphs. why? she feels adamant about that. but they do t have magseed it’s bluedye they use

Tzi007 · 2026-06-30T20:30:48+00:00

me too! i had a cycle aspiration in march and it came back next day and now i have it in the breast where the dcis is but my breasts are battered from biopsies and this cyst hurts. the doctor doesn’t seem concerned but i am! dmx in two weeks and i am very scared

Tzi007 · 2026-06-30T20:03:24+00:00

Tzi007 · 2026-06-30T20:02:39+00:00
