I just had a preop breast surgeon visit this morning and my date for double mastectomy with reconstruction is set for November 12th, Wednesday and surgery should begin around 11:30 am at Providence Newberg, I will stay at the hospital for supposedly 1 night. I will have my own breast surgeon, plastic surgeon, pathologist, anesthesiologist, and oncologist during surgery. I will be under anesthesia for around 7-8 hrs and could be longer if dye shows up in the lymph nodes which means lymph nodes need to be removed and that is an additional hour being under anesthesia for one breast. I have cancer in BOTH breasts. Depending how it all goes, I might have allograft with expanders. Then wait a few months and finish with another quick surgery of placing implants and a little bit of skin grafting for cosmetic purposes. After surgery, I will be seeing a physical therapist. At this point, I just want all cancer out and gone and no cancer in the lymph nodes. I have peace over all of this. God will be with me every step of the way! I love my breast surgeon, oncologist, and plastic surgeon. I have a great team who will be fighting my breast cancer for me. Finally, a game plan has been made! Yay!
