I didn't feel amputated either, I had my mastectomy and reconstructive surgery done at the same time, so when I woke up I had a reconstructive breast in place of the one they took. Looking at my self in the mirror sometimes made me feel i was in the twilight zone...but now it has been a yr and I am used to it. It looks like a normal breast just without the nipple.
