I just spoke to the Oncology Surgeon, the Mastectomy is complete. The are now beginning the reconstruction which involves placing a tissue expander under the pectoral muscle. The doctor said they had to move very slow because of the scar tissue from the previous biopsy and lumpectomy. She was able to get the two lymph nodes that were concerning her, and overall she thinks things went very well. I should hear from the plastic surgeon in about an hour to an hour and a half.
