1. The My Care Kit was ordered through Breast Screen Victoria after my initial diagnosis.
2. The Berlei Bra supplied after I gave my size was too tight and uncomfortable it was a 14B. I'd been wearing the Smart Bras up until then so I found that the Berlei bra was quite different in size. After calling BCNA after getting a larger size (16B) I was told it didn't come in a 16B only a 16C so I didn't bother with it and returned it to BCNA. I eventually found the Berlei Bra at Myer AND it did come in a 16B. I still don't like wearing it as I find it still is uncomfortable for my type of wounds.
3. I don't like wearing any Bra but I will wear the Smart Bra (like a Genie Bra or Arh Bra) but I am only three weeks out from my surgery.
