I'm small breasted, just had a lumpectomy, and am concerned about the appearance after fluid is re-absorbed and I go through radiation. Does anyone have feedback on this?

Thanks for your posting.

Have you seen this resource?

http://www.cancer.org/docroot/CRI/content/CRI_2_4_4X_Surgery_5.asp?sitearea=

Also, if you would like to talk with someone who has had your type of surgery, the ACS's Reach to Recovery volunteers are trained to support people facing breast cancer, as well as those who have surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and who are thinking about breast reconstruction. 1-800-ACS-2345.

Please keep us posted on whether this was a valuable resource for you. Thanks.
