I had a lumpectomy last August and radiotherapy in November but I am finding a problem with T-shirts and jumpers. On one side tops dig into my neck and other side is off my shoulder. Wondering if "chicken fillets" would be the answer, if they are still available in the shops. Or does anyone else have a solution? Thanks.
Hi Mrs LAB
I'm sorry I can't help you with your answer - I had 80mm removed from my left breast, but I've had no issues with my clothes fitting ok. But, by answering I'm pushing your post back to the first page and hopefully someone who's had this issue is around at this time and can give you a bit of advice.
Kindest wishes, Lesley
Have you heard of Knitted Knockers? Might be what you need, along with a good well fitted bra. I found them really helpful in finding the right size, and they didn’t mind me trying one, and then asking for a slightly different size until I found the one that was right for me.
