Hi! Sorry you've found yourself here!
@KylieG
The links above will give you some good quality information with regard to reconstruction, surgery et cetera
There's a lot to take in!
There's terminology to be learnt, like clear margins, oncology et cetera which will give you a clearer understanding of why the private surgeon made the comment "The private surgeon I saw said I need all the breast tissue and nipple removed"
Hopefully you will find the links above very helpful and my advice is take someone with you to appointments so that you can absorb and between you both pick up on everything.
Deep breaths!
Take care
