Is it by choice you are having both done as a profilatic remedy?  Is it ovarian cancer you have and  keeping breast cancer out of your future or breast cancer you have with keeping female reproductive cancer?  Or, strong family history of female cancers?

I work as a home care assistant, and have assisted patients recovering after their release from the hospital.   I cannot imagine anyone trying to recover from these three procedures at one time.  I am sure there are doctors who would do this work, but is it wise?
