Hi there @Moosie and @dbelle. I had my left boob off (may 2016) that had the tumor in it along with 8 lymph nodes then 6 months later took the right one off no lymph nodes as a prophylaxis and that’s the side I got the seroma in which surprised me. I had the drain in for two weeks for the left side but funnily enough it fell out on the kitchen floor one morning all by it’s self and scared the shit out of me! Went to see the surgeon that day and thankfully all was ok. The right side I had the drain in for 10 days when I was reviewed and the surgeons registrar said to take it out as it increases infection staying in even though it was stil draining significant fluid I argued with him to leave it in until the two week mark but he insisted to take it out. So a few days later I got a seroma and it was painful as fuck! Anyway long story short ended up having 250mls drained and overnight stay in hospital on IV antibiotics. And no bra for sure its just too uncomfortable for me anyway. I have the crocheted titties now and much prefer them to to prosthetics. I also just bought a new bra from Belei it’s called the Chrissy bra (after Chrissy amphlett from the divynls) it’s the most comfortable bra I still have some issues with nerve discomfort and pain sometimes too. And @AllyJay love the frankentitty name.... bloody hilarious!!! Margie. Xxx
