I'm a new member, just got my CRT last week. Has anyone ordered the soft touch seat belt attachment or the Hercomfort pad that hooks to the bra? I was wondering if they help with the uncomfortableness.

I found that a small pillow under the seat beat worked just fine for the first week. After about a week, I didn't need it. I did order the soft touch pad that goes on a bra strap mainly for a cushion in case I got hit playing racquetball. I only wore it a few times as that thickness made it more uncomfortable and the other players are quite aware and are careful about not swinging a racquet too close. It would make more sense to have these pads immediately after surgery rather than 2 weeks later, as the swelling does go down. But like you, I did not know about these until I found the PM Club site and it was too late by that time as the healing was well along the way.
Good luck with your adjustment and hope your discomfort improves very soon!

Thank you so much, Wilma. I think I'll wait until I heal some before doing anything.
