Hi! I am a happy flattie! I just finished chemo this week and had my double mastectomy with no reconstruction on 2 February 2022. All excellent suggestions about what you will need (don’t buy too much like me!) and comments above especially from Ausmum2!
My experience has been very good. I had virtually no pain. I had full range of motions around a month after surgery and feel light and back to my normal self minus boobs. I am gaining sensation back and my scar are nice.
Everyone is different but all pain and discomfort CAN be managed and generally have a solution.
There is a lot of information online about reconstruction but not too much about staying flat. I am part of a few fantastic flatties FB groups.
Message me if you want to chat about the surgery or being flat in general (I love it!) and can also send you the links to the FB groups if you like.
@Ausmum2 I am always happy to find another flatty! I hope you are feeling well and enjoying life.
