When can I wear a bra again? I had my surgery on Monday.. And I have family coming over to visit.

Regular bra or a sports one?

And does this make me 3 or 4 days post OP? I'm not sure if I should include my surgery date...

You can wear one whenever it's comfortable! I had my drain tube almost directly below my bra band, so that was NOT comfortable. But even so, when we'd go walking, I'd put some extra gauze over and wear the bra anyway.

Even though my surgery was very early in the morning, the NEXT day was day 1 POST-OP. Don't count the day of surgery...

I didn't have any bra restrictions. Went home from the hospital wearing a loose fitting sports bra. Never had a problem.

I wore a bandeau (tube) bra for about 3 days before going back to my regular bra just because the band sat on one of my incisions. Go with what's comfortable.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
