The Next Step After Breast Reconstruction.

Since the reconstruction I'm doing great and healing lovely. It feels strange having a breast again after been without one for 2 years. It does take a bit of getting used to and feels a little strange and different from the other one. The next step is to go back to the plastic surgeon in November and talk about getting a nipple tattooed on the reconstructed breast and then go back on the waiting list to have the other breast reconstructed to match the new one. I had my doubts about having reconstruction done because I'd seen a video of a reconstructed breast and I did not like what I saw. I have to say my reconstruction was a lot better then I expected it to be and I feel more like a real woman again. If your thinking about having breast reconstruction done I say go for it. It will make you feel much better.
