Dear Karen,

When I had surgery on my left breast at the 9 O'Clock position, to remove a benign growth deep inside the breast, I wore a compression bra post surgery.  Had Percocet, which did cover the pain.

Of course, a biopsy is very different than a breast augmentation or mastectomy.

My thoughts and prayers are with you for your continued recovery.

Your friend,

Monica

Monica, in regards to compression, this is the wrap they placed on me. They gave me instructions while placing the wrap on me to do it properly. Need to wear it for a full two weeks.

Karen,

Mine looked like a full support cotton bra that hooked on the front.  Had the largest size the hospital offered, and they still had to stuff me into it!  LOL!  It did make me feel more comfortable and helped minimize scarring.
