Gah!!!!! Will someone please invent a bra that has straps that don't hurt fibromyalgic shoulders! There must be a strap fabric out there thats really soft but still holds the darned things up. I know other sufferers are probably feeling the pain too, has anyone got any tips? (Pardon the pun)
hun its not the straps its our condition which makes the slightest pressure painful
i have them pll on bras with padded cups there soft but about an hour or so in its starts to hurt. even soft waist bands .etc hurt after awhile .
take a look on the British pain society page they explain the pains we fibro folk get .
I wear tee shirt bras as I can't wear normal bras...
they are like £9 for 3 from eBay x
me to when i need to .but most of the time i dont because any pressure is painful .
Have a look at Belvia bras - theyre made by JML and fit most shapes. Just google Belvia bra.
Yep, I share your pain at 42H! x
Miss Mary of Sweden has wider bra straps,expensive but comfortable.
Thank you Loxie, just checked them out and read the reviews etc, they look comfortable but arent really suited to the bigger-busted, i might get one to try around the house though xx
LOL xxxx
Thank you, I think im too busty to successfully wear T shirt bras but im willing to try anything at the moment!
that can be a problem luckly i am only medium sized bust .
ooh yes, they look comfortable and supportive and have cushioned straps, i will be buying one of these shortly.
I gave up bras with clips and straps a few years ago..bought heaps of Ah Bras..very cheap too...there all in one..different colours...really comfortable..you don't even know you wearing one..a lady I know bought them just to wear to bed...they probably are called something else in the UK...I'm in Australia, actually department stores sell them now..I had to buy mine off the net...actually there are Ebay stores that sell them too, if you have trouble locating them...be blessed:-) xx
I guess if all else fail..you could always cut the straps and put your own on...:-) xxx the lady that wears them to bed is quite well endowed..they have little inserts too, so you can move them around to make the outside look good...even smaller..I do that..
Thanks Christine, Im thinking of inventing my own
Hello..Me too, I share your pain. I know what Christine means Ah Bra, I thought they would be the answer for me. But no, I can't even lift my arms to fiddle putting one on. Such problems us Fibro sufferers have..Have a good day..Anne..
iv brought a front opening bra in desperation but even this is tricky because its a kind of rounded hook that slides inside a tag thing on the other side ,which is trcky for me to do .
i was looking for one with a clip that you just snapped together when you cant get out to the shops much and have to relie on rebay its not easy to see ah bras are ok if you can hold your arms above your head which i cant do for long .
tell you the worst things to try and get into those those slimming shorts torcher .
what we need is an ah bra with front clip
Amen...:-) xx
yes AMEN
