Mid 30s, diagnosed 10 months ago. Chemo, mastectomy, now radiotherapy and hormone therapy. Very hard journey.
I recently had a prosthetic fitting and came home with one which weighs roughly the same as my ‘gone’ boob. G cup. I hate it. I can’t stand looking at it or holding it. It annoys me. Am I crazy?
Before I got the prosthesis, I used the breast forms, and didn’t feel like this. I still use them because I can’t stand my prosthesis. This is strange, because the breast forms don’t quite match my other boob, and they like to travel up, leaving me looking like a seesaw. It is further annoying because I can’t place this feeling as much as I try to think about it. I am pretty sure that the feeling is not because my skin tone and that of the prosthesis are like night and day, literally. The breast forms are like that too. It is such a shame because it is meant to give a more natural ‘restoration of look’ and it is not cheap.
Anyone had this feeling or am I crazy?
