that they did a mammogram, ultrasound and an MRI and they only saw one of the tumors. That really makes me a little skeptical of the imaging capabilities but I am not ready... I had my re excision yesterday and they had a nurse who has had a mastectomy come in and talk to me about hers. She said it wasn't that painful. It didn't sound like reconstruction was a piece of cake. I guess it is best to be prepared.

I ask myself what I will do and get three answers.

Thanks for your input
