Ok, you guys are scaring me.  I have to get a masectomy and want immediate reconstructive.  I don't want to have to get an implant on my good side to even out the other side, I don't want to have to replace implants every 15 yrs and I don't want to mess with my core muscles. I thought the DIEP was my best option.  Is it common to have problems with this option? Is the issue with the skill of the surgeons? Luck of the draw with how your body reacts?  If you all had to do it again would you still choose the DIEP?
