Lat Dorsi Reconstruction

Hi All, would like the find others who are suffering from chronic pain post reconstruction using the shoulder flap? Please friend me, we can support each and form a pressure group for this side effect to be recognised and treated. 
Many Thanks

Caroline

 

  • Hello Caroline

    I'm sorry to hear that following your lat dorsi breast reconstruction you've been left with chronic pain.

    The choice to go for reconstruction and then which type of reconstruction is often a difficult one and when those choices leave you living with chronic pain, well I can't imagine how difficult life has become for you. 

    I know that we've had other women post here on the forum about their experiences with breast reconstructions and I hope that some of them will reply to share their experiences with you. 

    I do hope that in the future things improve for you. 

    best wishes,
