Hi Sheila, I too had a lot of sensitvity with my second prophylactic mastectomy. I had a return to theatre about 3 weeks after surgery to have a very large blood clot removed. This seemed to create a very sensitive area. Wearing a bra was nealy impossible, as where it came in contact with my skin it just drove me crazy. It was like hyposensitive skin, due to irritated nerve endings. It took a while to settle down, but has now completely gone. I had reconstruction at the same time, and the stretching expander kept irritating the skin. Hang in there, as I am sure it will go. It is still early days. Love Chris xx
