Good for you Tush. My circumstances were similar, but after a regular and triple lumpectomy that didn’t leave much to work with. We opted for a mastectomy on that side and a reduction on the other. Also had implant reconstruction on the mastectomy side, no chemo or radiation for me, just a hormone suppressant for 5 years. So far so good, just a little lopsided lol. 
Hang in there. You will hardly notice it before long!

FF I hear ya. I went into to the meeting with the surgeon fully prepared to tell her just take it all on both sides.
I'm healing and finally was able to sleep on a side last night. After a month of back only it sure did feel nice.
I also was told I can wear whatever ki d of bra I want now but definitely more comfortable with them not moving and strapped down.
No more surgery for me at least at this point.
