Stretchmarks!

Stretchmarks!

Stretchmarks! Having spent an anxious August trawling through the site for postings about stretchmarks on radiated breasts I requested an appointment with the Breast Clinic. I have developed stretchmarks which are more lumpy and ridgey than normal ones on the underside of my affected breast. In trying to find out information I had convinced myself that something sinister was happening! My reason for posting is not only to advise anyone else to get it checked out but also to reassure you that lumpy strange looking stretchmarks are a normal after effect on non-elastic (or plastic - used as an adjective - as my surgeon advised me!) breast tissue. Phew! I was too scared to post before clinic as I didn’t want any bad news. I hope this helps someone else who might be feeling as bad as I did.
