Depression after nipple removal

I had a prophylactic BNSM 18 months ago. My recon has fallen apart twice. Thursday I’m going in (out of state to a new doc) and having my implants, extra skin and sadly my nipples removed. I am already a sobbing mess. I have to keep telling myself that if not for the life and death of my sister I’d never have known my risk. She was only 30 at dx and just turned 35 when she passed. I was the younger sister and have now surpassed her age but I am struggling so much with this. Glad to know I’M not alone and also sad that I’m not alone.

patr I can't advise on reconstruction like you had but I can relate to the upset cause by nipple removal, I had my nipple removed in October 216, I was absolutely devastated. It totally took away my confidence I was sobbing going into the theatre.

A month ago I had a nipple reconstruction I am absolutely thrilled it was better than I could have imagined, it's still got small few stitches but it totally looks like a nipple, I'm looking forward to getting it tattooed so that the colour Is doneand it will look like the other one, there is light at the end of the tunnel and you have options, I know exactly how you feel sending you hugs across the net
