[QUOTE="1905, post: 320970, member: 2668"] I wouldn't be telling people to "demand this". I have had a double mastectomy, and no way would I want any part of my breast attatched to my body. It's a very personal decision. All woman have their own preferences. Some cancer will continue to proliferate if the patient chooses this option. All women should listen to their doctors. This is not the time when your grandmother had hers, when doctors don't present options, it's routine to have a plastic surgeon reconstruct initially. To post to women to "demand this" without knowing the facts is silly. Doctors will do what a woman wants- this may not be the best thing. The pathology report has everything to do with what the options are at diagnosis. [/QUOTE]
