Latissimus Dorsi recovery

Captroynsteph1

Anyone been through this surgery that can advise me about the recovery? I'm a week out and still have a lot of swelling under my arm. Dr. says I have to give it time, just wondering about any one else's experiences?

Hi Captroynsteph1,

We're sure others from our ever-helpful community will weigh in shortly with their thoughts, but in the meantime, we thought this page from the main Breastcancer.org site would be helpful: Lattissimus Dorsi Flap Reconstruction: What to Expect.

We hope this helps!
