I had a follow up visit (July 9) with my plastic surgeon since I finished my radiation. She said my breasts looked well and there is no scar tissue build up. Yea, that was great news to hear! I will have another visit with her in October. If everything looks well at that time then I will have surgery in November to put on my nipples. It will be an out patient surgery. We reviewed where the skin will be removed from (I have a few options) and the healing process for the surgery. She took more photos to add to my medical folder. Hopefully we will never have to compare the photos and no major changes occur.
I saw my dermatologist (July14) for a full body scan. This is the first one I ever had this done. I had moles removed in the past but now I have have a 5% higher chance for melanoma so a mole check was recommended. The doctor checks every part of your body. My check-up went well and I didn't have any moles that looked abnormal. I will have this procedure done once a year.
I am feeling great and not having any side effects.
