Hi Everyone,
Have you tried sleeping on your front with a breast implant? Is that possible at all? I have always slept in prone and am now worried that my sleep will be severely disturbed if I choose an implant post-mastectomy (Bra cup B) . I know I should avoid lying prone in the post -op period. Thanks!
Hello
I am sorry you have not yet had a reply to your question. Sometimes it can just take a few days for someone to see it and respond.
In the meantime why not give the Macmillan Support Line a call and talk to one of the nurses. They are there from 8am-8pm daily and would know about implants, care etc post mastectomy.
I wish you well for your treatment and if there is anything that you need, please do ask.
Jane
