Has anyone had a reconstructed flap breast removed?

It has been a while since I have been here.I had bilateral SGAP in August 2014,one side failed and I had severe digestive problems from all the meds which are just now starting to resolve.My recon breast is soft,but looks like a hamburger bun...which is normal without having any corrections done.I do not want another flap surgery,wondering if I could have fat grafting....doubt insurance would cover it.So I am thinking of just having the breast removed and be done with it.Has anyone done this? I have tried a prothesis,but at the shop was not given any options and ended up with a very heavy one....I thought it was the one covered by insurance,but then had a huge copay....so that was not the best experience.I just want to be done with all this....
