Anyone else notice that after rads the rads breast continues to shrink even after 14 months post rads. I have been having problems with my bra staying straight without my good breast falling out because of lopsided bra. How can I get my bra to stay in place??

    That won't be good for me :-)   I have 2 boosts left.  I'm already pretty small, which at least seemed to help on the buring during rads.  My lumpectomy was in the 6 o'clock position so I started out with a scoop out of the bottom.  That has filled in so it's more rounded but I do notice that the entire breast is now obviously smaller.  I hate to think it will look smaller in a year.

    I, too, wonder how long the shrinkage continues. I am 19 months post-radiation and still think my radiated breast is contracting.

    lane4,

     At least I'm not the only one who thinks this. All I know is I can't lose anymore or my chest will really look lopsided.
