Hi Traci,
Thank you for your question. We have several women affected by breast cancer on the network. I will see if I can someone with the same experience who can weigh in. Of course, your doctor may have some recommendations.
In the meantime, I found two websites that may help:
http://www.cancer.org/Cancer/BreastCancer/MoreInformation/BreastReconstructionAfterMastectomy/breast-reconstruction-after-mastectomy (scroll down to the After Surgery section)
http://www.breastreconstruction.ca/living_tram.htm#recovery
I hope this helps, and that you are feeling better soon!
Karen
