Hi, I've just got back from hospital following mastectomy and reconstruction using belly flap and my M&S support pants are useless. I'm a size 12/14 and size 16/18 are tiny? I found some links on another forum but they don't work and most reviews are very muxed or they are out of stock. I'm desperate as I need to be wearing now. They said I need medium support and high rise. If you have experience of something that works and I can get delivered ASAP please let me know, I am very uncomfortable, especially at night. Thanks

  • I was specifically told not to use support pants as they are too tight. I bought large cotton granny style pants and I was discharged with a Velcro girdle that I was told to remove when sitting. It kind of wraps around you and secures with a length of Velcro, if you look up post surgical stomach binders on Amazon, lots come up, have a chat with the breast care nurses first but that’s what I had, all the best x
