Rads with big boobs! - what bra to wear?

Islandmama2

i'm starting radiation in 2 weeks. I see lots of people wear soft cotton bras, camisoles or no bra at all. None of those options would work for me! My breasts are 34M! There is no way I can leave the house without a bra! Finding something without a wire is very difficult. Any suggestions

I was big breasted going through radiation (44G). I didn't have any problems, only toward the end I was a little red around my clavicle, like a sunburn. (For what its worth, I am olive complexioned, don't sunburn easily, and radiation was easy for me, I have a blond very fair-skinned friend who had a lot of problems.) I wore my regular bras when out, but went braless at home. If the wires bother you you could cut the wires out of some of the bras you generally wear and try them that way. Good luck!

I wanted to avoid chafing. I found sports/compression bras the most comfortable - just kind of slathered up and packed it all in.
