I Am 5'7 150 Pounds and Want to Get a Breast Reduction from 40 Inches (30 G) to Possible a C?

I am 5'7 150 pounds and want to get a breast reduction from 40 inches (30 G) to possible a C cup. My measurements are 40-28.5-35. The size of my chest triggers a chronic rash/fungus that runs in my family causing it to spread, back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, difficulty working out, you name it. No matter how small I get, even at 140-145 pounds my chest can't get lower than 38 inches and the problems remain. Is it possible or even proportionate at 5'7 to get to a C cup, what's reasonable?
