Hello , 

I had a mastectomy 2 weeks doing well, I noticed my right breast (implant) is getting smaller and soft , the left is normal and very hard. Is this normal ?
And I noticed every time I have a cold drink I feel it going down on my chest is this normal? 

  • Hi Cristinaal  just replying to try to bump you up to the first page in the hope a relevant person will answer you.

    Hi , can't comment on the implants but... Yes... When I drink a cold drink I can feel it sort of running down my chest and spreadng out... Difficult to describe. Weird but not necessarily unpleasant. I've read many other comments re this that suggests it's not just us experiencing this sensation. So no worries. Hope someone comments on the implant part.

Help us do whatever it takes, because we’ve never been needed more.
