Wearing a bra 24/7
Hi. Recently had surgery for DCIS. Results are positive. Follow up appointment with oncologist. Surgeon was fantastic, but was not as supportive as I thought she would be. Has done her bit I guess. D...
Hi Barbie54,
Are you taking Tamoxifen after surgery?
Hi Barbie54 - sorry to hear of your struggles post surgery. Perhaps reach out to your breast care nurse as well, they are very knowledgeable with post surgery care.
Also our information may help https://www.bcna.org.au/resources/surgery-and-breast-reconstruction/lumpectomy-breast-conserving-surgery/
In the meantime I also wanted to remind you that if you haven't accessed your free post surgery bra My Care Kit - please reach out to BCNA's Helpline 1800 500 258.
Morning Mez
Have had a productive chat with Breast Care Nurse. She's an angel. Have got pain management under control better now. She organised a post surgery bra for me which is so soft and comfy!!! I got a bra locally for post surgery also. It's a bit more structured but still comfy.
Thanks for your reply. This is a great format to reach out to other's who have been through similar things.
Thanks again.
Morning.
Not taking any medication accept for panadol for pain management.
