DIEP flap lifted and pectoral muscle reattached?

Sue2690

I had a DIEP flap done about 5 years ago. The surgeon (a different one - I've moved since) thinks the pectoral muscle isn't properly attached and that's why my breast bounces whenever I use my arm, and there's also a bulge above the breast all the time. She is thinking she will have to lift the flap and reattach the pec. Any thoughts? Any idea what the recovery time would be for this? How long should I expect to be off work? (I'm a teacher, but write with the other hand.)
