Default The Ahh, Aha, and Genie bra for MS hug??

I have a terrible time with MS hug. it can be really bad, and throwing a bra on top of it is awful! I had a double mastectomy and around the house and town go without a bra/breasts as I cant take the squeeze.

Saw an infomercial about the Ahh bra. it didnt have a way to pop in my prosthetic so I looked around till I found ones that have a soft padded insert (to hide nipple show thru) I ordered it. it said use your shirt size as a guide. I chose a size up as I am more comfy without the squeeze. they arrived in the mail yesterday.UGH! OMG TIGHT...TOO TIGHT! I looked and the woman had sent me the wrong size! I thought the straps were too far towards the arm, the neck was too wide, and the band at the rib cage DID roll! and quickly. it is supposed to be roll proof. Went back to Amazon and had to ask the sellers permission to return since its underwear. Told her the try on story and she agreed to take them back. She pushed hard for me to buy a larger size. I didnt want to jinx the return so I said I had to wait for the credit back to my card before I could afford new ones.

colors, can we talk colors? They only come in a 3 pack. you must buy the black/white/tan pack or the jem tone of red/blue/green. you cant ask for 1 white or or even 3 white ones, you must get the three color pack. im not a fan of black, and while I dont mind tan, I would prefer good old fashioned white.

Went to QVC and found the genie bra. Watched the video, read the reviews and folks love them. I ordered the "vintage color" pack. Again, why cant I just have white? This is lavender, pink, soft grey and some other color. a 4 pack but it was more expensive than the Ahhh bra with inserts. who cares if this works!

Anyone else use these? do they help? I would love the idea of "just go braless" if I didnt have to pop in a prosthetic when I go to church or family get together (so folks dont stare) and have gone many places flat chested and braless, but I really should put something on.

If you have these or want these, please tell me the MS hug experience with them. Did they help? are they not worth the money? Just google Ahh bra or Genie bra if you want to know what I am talking about.
