My right breast doesn't feel the same anymore ... Is this the new norm post lumpectomy, chemo & rad?

I had my lumpectomy in June 2017 and lymph nodes in right arm removed in July. Chemo stopped at Xmas and rad in March. Now I am just on Herceptin until Oct. I have been noticing changes over  the past...

@viking1 I dont chase the cleavage as my surgery was centre to middle of the breast and have a neat but distinct patch job. I once had a great cleavage. Haha. With my swimwear I ve stopped bothering if the scar is visible a sun shirt fixes that Im nearly 68 now and i can only imagine as the years go one the boobs will just get more saggy. They will never be the same size again. Great thing is im still alive mets and all.  like you my surgery was in 2017. 
Best of luck with the hunt for what i call sexy bra. 
I just try to make whats on top a bit pretty these days
