Listen Later

 

It's important to consider your lifestyle and what activities you want to be able to do after a breast reconstruction and also how you want to feel. Physiotherapist and researcher Dr Deidre McGhee, and Jodi Steel, who had a breast reconstruction two years ago, join host Kellie Curtain to discuss how to optimise your physical preparation and recovery after breast reconstruction surgery.
