Sorry i didn't see your post sooner.
I had just the one mastectomy, but reconstruction still hasn't happened (hopefully early next year, 2 years from the other surgery -- I had complications of all sorts). yeah, the drains are a pain, but I also was surprised by the lack of actual pain.
hoping you won't need full chemo, maybe just Herceptin, which means you'll def need a haircut.
