Hi
I am new to forums, so forgive my ignorance in how this all works. I have had a lumpectomy and 3 sentinels removed 2 weeks ago. Consultant has confirmed 2 sentinels were clear, the 3rd showed traces, now awaiting next course of action with oncologist. Will most likely have radio therapy on breast and armpit, currently using a sports bra which is rubbing, can anyone recommend a comfy bra for radiation as wound is right where bras are shaped under armpit and side of breast? Thank you.
I used nicolajane.com who have front fastening bras with a lovely broad supportive band underneath and no seams. They are supersoft. There are also free returns if it doesn't fit or you don't like it. If you have a shop near to you then it is a personal appointment, only you in the shop and the assistants are so knowledgeable and kind.
