For The Ladies...

This is slightly an awkward topic to write about, but here goes.

Before I was diagnosed with CD, 3 years ago, my breasts were a lot bigger than they are now. Okay, maybe not THAT much bigger, but I have a pretty small frame and they were noticeably bigger. I've had a couple flare-ups since then, and my weight has fluxuated understandably, but I've been in remission since like April and my breasts are not coming back. I used to have 32Cs, and now I barely have enough to justify wearing a B cup. I miss having natural cleavage!

What's worse is I think my boob-fat has gone into my belly. With their depletion and its increase, They're pretty much all the same size, it's terrible.

Will this get better? Ever? Please? My self-confidence shouldn't be so dependant on the size of my breasts, I know, but I just miss being able to think "I may be sick all the time, and look like crap when I am, but at least I have one physical feature to be proud of"

Thoughts??

Maria, interesting post. I lost a cup size before going on Remicade. I have gained all my weight back since being on remicade but have not regained the full cup size. I have however, added quiet a bit of weight around the mid section which I have never had before.

Mine are completely gone too, it may be just where i was used to having them swollen for being pregnant for two years straight. Who knows? But I see that mine are a lot smaller here lately, but how much smaller can I be I only weigh 115 and am 5'6.
