Breast Reconstruction Combined with Mastectomy

My surgeon tells me that they don't do this immediately in this city of over a million people in Canada. He says people have to wait 6 months.

I hate that thought because it means you need general anaesthetic poison in your body all over again, and this stuff can destroy both your brain and liver.

On the other hand, what if you get breast reconstruction right away and they find out there was still some cancer left?

@tracy10UT In the early stage breast cancer, an immediate breast reconstruction can be safely done. Otherwise, would be better to wait for a secondary breast reconstruction after completion of radiotherapy.
