At Last!
As a person with fibromyalgia, I am in pain all the time, and I have tried every bra on the market, trying to find one that gives me some coverage and doesn't hurt or give me the dreaded "uni-boob." I have paid as much as $65, and tried everything from underwired to heavily constructed and padded to almost no construction, and nothing works. On a whim, after spotting this cheap little thing, I thought, what do I have to lose? Oh, I didn't mention that I'm not the tiniest person in the world; in fact, I'm a well-endowed woman, and we are usually told that we need support. I would agree, but for people like me, that only comes at the price of unending pain. So I usually just go bra-less unless I'm going to be in public, and then I suffer until I can get home. Well, this bra isn't much, but it does the trick. It gives me just enough coverage so I don't scandalize the neighborhood, and it's soft and stretchy enough that it doesn't hurt me--even when the bottom band inevitably rolls up. Look, ladies, if you are 70 years old and chubby, it's going to happen. Do I have perky uplift? No. But I don't care. I just want a little control and nothing showing. I get that and no pain. After years of straps digging into my shoulders, underwires digging into my ribs, and bands squeezing my sides until the burning pain is unbearable, I am in bliss. And all for $9.99! Yay!
