Has any one had bad tummy pains

  • Welcome to the forum Jackie.

    Have you spoken to your medical team about the tummy pains? If not, do let them know as they will be in the best position to help you with this. Hopefully others who have had this surgery will reply soon to share their advice and experiences with you but I just wanted to let you know that you can chat to our cancer nurses about this as well. Their freephone number is 0808 800 4040 and are available Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    I hope this helps Jackie and that the tummy pains disappear soon.

    All the best,

  • I had a 10 hours surgery for total mastectomy and breast reconstruction using my abdominal muscles. It was a double benefit as l got both new breast and flatter abdomen. I did not have abdominal pain since 2015 when the surgery was done. You can have a scan to investigate the root cause of your pain It may not be Cancer related
