Title: Change in sexual sensations
Post by: LorenAndrew on August 17, 2011, 03:51:13 PM
Hey Guys,

So I have been looking around trying to see if this is a common occurrence, or what's up..

I had top surgery about a week and a half ago.  Recovery is going well, just taking everything slow :).

Since surgery my body sensations have felt different.  In the past I never felt anything in my chest, but now it seems as though I have sensations associated with climaxing when it feels like sensations are running through my body and being held up with my chest.

I know this may sound crazy but it almost feels like waves going through my body trying to send a message to my nipples that are no longer in the same place.  I can't say that this feeling is terrible, but it is usually followed with extended tingling sensation from my chest area and I am still in the healing process.  I am both wondering if my body will resolve itself and if these feelings could be affecting healing (blood flow, etc).

Any shared experience would be helpful!

Thanks!
Andy

Kvail,

Thanks for the feedback.  I kind of went into surgery only knowing the basics.  I know its early in recovery and I have a long way to go, but I was so disconnected to my chest I didn't think I had to think about new feelings, I didn't really want or care about having feeling.  I am so sensitive right now just from the healing that I obviously don't know the outward physical feelings. 

It's just made me uncomfortable to do anything right now.
