    Hiya Lol64

    I was only talking about this on Tuesday with one of my sisters.

    I would advise you to wear a padded, T-shirt bra, but to be honest, when I sit down, I have enough room  - and some - in there, I could go shoplifting and no-one would know where I'd stashed the goods!!lol

    Don't get me wrong, I've never been overly-blessed in that department (someone on another thread mentioned waking up with a sweaty cleavage: I had to ask what a 'cleavage' was tee hee!).

    I always remember one of my sisters (the one with the biggest boobs) telling the one with the smallest "At least you won't have them hanging down by your knees like me"........we've yet to see this, the Cow!!lol

    Actually, I'm struggling to find a comfortable bra at all.  Wish I could go without but it ain't pretty......redface!

    Sx

      Hi lol, oh my gosh you poor thing what a nightmare - I think about just going into A and E sometimes when I'm really bad, but I would have an hours stressful drive then maybe a four hour wait to be told something I already know, what do you do - your right who's gonna listen, how are you feeling now ?

      Well look after yourself and yes a good nights sleep might help, it's all so stressful isn't it and it doesn't help when your stressed out already. Take good care x

    Hi Lol64

    I have been out of connection for a while too but just getting back online and saw your post. It's so soul destroying to see our pride and joys disappear before our eyes:-(

    I feel quite "flat" literally.

    A good push up bra helps but it's not the same. Have been trying some exercises lately and it may be helping - not sure yet. I have a resistence band and have been following a friends advice on stretching the pecs. It may help with building the supporting muscles and prove the overall effect? Worth a try and makes me feel stronger in my arms too.

    Evening Primrose and Vit B complex plus menopace- helping a bit with hot flashes and night sweats. Drinking more water hasn't done anything apart from make me pee more:-( My skin still feels dry and I am moisturising daily (never used to need to)

    Thinking of a name for my peri meno-

    But nothing inspires me.

    Best wishes Hun x
