I had a single mastectomy 2 months ago and have been using the Berlei prothesis provided by BCNA. I am finding it is not a good fit and even though I wear it with the pocketed Berlei Bra, it keeps slipping out. I am finding it is also uncomfortable when worn for the whole day. I did have to reduced the stuffing to make it similar size to my other breast so maybe that is why it keeps slipping up and out?
Firstly, how do people with single mastectomy get the prothesis to be balanced so it is not lopsided. I find that I am having difficulty when I wear a work top/shirt and it looks so odd with one boob sitting higher than the other. Will a proper prothesis fix this issue?
So if I want to be fitted for a better one, can anyone recommend anything near Croydon-Lilydale (VIC) area?
Any advice will be very much appreciated.
Thanks so much.
