I had the lat flap -- why did you choose the DIEP? I really didn't have many options because I didn't have enough body fat. Are you happy with the outcome? I still have TEs and will have exchange in Jan then nipple reconstruction. Good Luck Diagnosis: 9/1/2009, DCIS, 1cm |

I would check with your doctor. I had bx with TE, exchange schedule for 11/23. I did not have to have chemo, rads and am not taking any med. I met with the oncologist and we are doing 6 month f/u unless anything else occurs. Diagnosis: 2/3/2009, DCIS, 3cm, Stage 0, 0/1 nodes, ER+/PR-, HER2- |
