Strange symptoms after mastectomy

i definitely had phantom boob syndrome! It faded away after about a month but I swear it was still there and start scratching away in mid-air like a puppy with an itch.  I like to think it was a carry-over from the dude who gave me the nipple injection pre surgery who was really concerned that I would get a reaction to the bandaid he put over it as I have a tape allergy.  He couldn't work out why I was laughing so hard until I pointed out to him that they were just about to cut the whole boob off and that the tape reaction wasn't going to be my main concern!!
