HER2 Support Group Forums - View Single Post - Bilateral mastectomy support group

I am part of this club. I go flat. I was a DD before and it feels good to have that wieght off my body. I wear jackets to work or loose fitting tops. I have a prosthesis, but the strap goes across my port. So I go natural and I don't plan on any reconstruction. I am a little uneven...but .. love being braless.
