Reduction after unilateral mastectomy

Had a unilateral mastectomy right side in 4/2000. Have debated for the past 8 years on having reconstruction with reduction of the left. It just seems to be getting bigger. Has anyone else had this problem? I just cannot make up my mind about reconstruction and reduction. Am amost 55 now, am healthy, but scared to go back to surgery.

I need some prayers

My prayers are with you. I did not take the Tamoxifen and will be eight years out from Chemo in November. I do take Evista and one of the side effects of that is clots. I was told to be sure that I get up and move around quite often as I have a sedentary job, medical transcription. I have had no problems.
