Is there a place for us to donate our compression vests to those who haven't yet had the surgery?

What an awesome idea dude... I've got one that someone could have. It's brand new! Only wore it once. Bought it post-op just to check them out.

Maybe Merle could make a separate section for this...

I have two 'stage 2' compression garments from Healing Enchancements: https://www.healingenhancements.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=223

I got a medium and a large. I only tried them on once - pre-op. Neither fit very well, but they are good products. Its been a big hassle trying to return these things. I'm willing to just give them away if someone pays the shipping.

(i think this will be good for someone with a more 'normal' frame - i have wide shoulders, fairly muscular, narrow waste - its tough for me to find regualr clothes that fit well )

PM me if your interested

This really is a good idea. Im not wearing one but my doctor says in my case thats ok as it was a lot of massive reconstruction....

But he said I could wear a Binder thingy if I liked tho Im not going to as:

1 Im having trouble finding one
2 he says I dont really have to where it really it might not even be a good idea
3 He told me it will most likey be covered by my insurance, except for the fact I dont have anyway  :( ??? :-[ :-\ :'(............................

The damn thing would cost me something near 300 dollars.

im not looking to get one but this is a truly great idea for others in need. Precautions would have to be taken by people trading to insure that its the absolute correct one they should be wearing.
