WHAT I WISH I KNEW BEFORE MY MASTECTOMY

Sharing the top 7 things I wish I knew before my double mastectomy surgery!

When I was undergoing my preventative double mastectomy and reconstruction because I carry the BRCA 1 genetic mutation, I did not realize that I had options and that there are so many things no one tells you before surgery that I wish I knew! From scar placement to how it REALLY impacts you to lose all the feeling in your chest after surgery - in this video I am sharing seven things I wish someone had told me before my surgery!

Ultimately, I want you to know that it’s your body, it’s your choice. You have options and I hope this video makes you feel more empowered when making these decisions and helps you know what questions to ask your surgeons!

If you have any questions for me or want me to cover something in particular - please be sure to drop them below in the COMMENTS!
