Single Masectomy
Hello, I joined this group a few weeks ago, but this is my first time posting. I was diagnosed with breast cancer of my left breast in September. I had breast conserving surgery and they removed 40mm ...
Hi @Leanne75, I have had a reconstruction, but did live with one breast for two years before that. The proper, weighted prosthesis will make a world of difference if it is fitted correctly. You honestly can’t tell the difference. I have heard of people putting a coin in the knitted one to keep it weighted. I also found the cheap ah type bra you get at Kmart with the molded inserts really comfy and very cheap.
As others have already said, when and if you are ready, the choosing breast reconstruction group are all here to help with your queries.
Good luck.
Paula.
