I had a different procedure, peri-areolar, but I did not require any assistance for bathing or going to the bathroom. I think I did require some help getting my oversized button-up shirt on and off. 5 days post-op, I was walking 5km/day.

I hope this helps! Good luck! One week from now you will be POST-OP!!!

I don't know where to ask my question ( I couldn't start a new topic ) and that's why I am posting it here, quoting your reply. I have been searching about the keyhole Mastectomy procedure and found a thread ( http://www.ftmsurgery.net/forums/t-keyho...-dr-mclean ) where you have given a link to a site which provides Keyhole Mastectomy Service. I have small breasts which are not over hanging and I think this would be the right choice for me. In the page you have specified ( http://www.ftmtopsurgery.ca/ftm-procedur...-incision/ ) , it has been said that the procedure has a high risk of bleeding. I am a little scared! So can you please share more info regarding this?
