Is there always loss of sensation?

Cynthia, I am happy you brought up the word sensation or lack of. I lost sensation in my affected breast 7 years ago when I had surgery to remove an interductal papilloma so last year when I had my cancerous breast tumor removed I had no sensation already in same breast. Does anyone know if you have to lose sensation when you have surgery due to breast cancer? I must say I miss the sensation!
