Question About Bras?

Hello All, I had single mastectomy followed by DIEP on that side 3 years later. The problem is that some of the tissue didn't "take" and as a result I am about 1/2 cup smaller on the one side. I have been wearing mastectomy bras and putting some foam that I cut out from the cups of older bras in the pocket on that side, just to look a little more even

I just lost 37 lbs and I am desperately in need of new bras. Surely someone out there can suggest a better solution than what I am doing?

Would love to hear any and all suggestions!

Thanks so much, Cyndi

    hi Cyndi. I admire your craftiness in cutting up old bras. But I think you're right there may be an easier solution. Do you live near a Nordstroms? I haven't gotten this far yet myself but word is that they'll do a professional fitting and alter any bras you choose with padding to help even you out.
