I had a mastectomy at the end of last year with an immediate reconstruction using my own tissue. I'm being offered a nipple reconstruction and think I'd like to go for it. My surgeon originally felt I wasn't suitable for the nipple-sharing technique where they use a portion of your remaining nipple. However he now thinks that's the best option. Does anyone have any experience of nipple reconstruction? Nipple-sharing sounds good in terms of symmetry but I'm worried that slicing off a bit of my remaining nipple will affect sensation. And I've already got enough numb bits! Would love to hear others' experiences. Thanks, Eliza
