I had double mastectomy and expanders placed on 2/17. My doctor has been filling the expanders with air. This week he will pull out the air and replace with saline. My exchange will be within three months. I can not wait to be rid of these dang expanders.

I had a double mastectomy in Feb with reconstructive spacers. I’m healed enough that my doctor will start injecting them which should take about 6-12 weeks, then a surgery to put in breast implants.
