I had meant with the plastic surgeon today, he was very nice. But based on my height and weight the amount that they would need to take out for insurance to cover with leave me with almost no breasts. I almost said yes, but I know that it wouldn't make me happy in the long term. Which means I don't know where to go from here!
First apt is set!
I just made my appointment with my plastic surgeon to get my initial consultation. The woman over the phone and explain to me that with my insurance they will measure my body mass index and see how much they would need to take off my breasts for insurance to cover it and then I will have the chance to say yes or no (Because that could leave me with nothing!). I'm terrified! I've wanted this for so long and now it feels like it's so far from being real, because I know my breasts are as large as a lot of other women and for how tall I am I'm afraid that they're going to tell me that my insurance just won't cover it. I'm feeling really disheartened and I Kind of just want to cry!
I wanted to breast reduction for as long as I can...
I wanted to breast reduction for as long as I can remember, I've been following the site and I've been counting down the days until my youngest stopped breast-feeding and I could talk to my doctor finally after 10 years of either being pregnant or nursing and knowing that I couldn't have a reduction. I've shared with friends and family how excited IM and my family understand because I've seen how much discomfort I've been in my entire life, but friends keep asking me why is if it's something that they just can't conceive of. I understand that from an outside perspective my breast don't look that large, because I'm almost always wearing two bras and they can't see the cruise with the brawls have dug into my shoulders and underneath my cleavage. Most people in our culture want larger breasts and can't understand willingly going under the knife to have them reduced. But I've wanted smaller breasts for so long and I've waited for so long! Today was my last day of physical therapy, which means that I meet with my doctor in a week and after this hopefully my insurance should cover the reduction. Because were military family I won't have the option of choosing my plastic surgeon, which is pretty terrifying! I can't wait for this I'm so excited and I hope that by documenting it other women with similar body types will be able to see before and after's and get is motivated to take care of themselves as all the other ladies on the site has motivated me!
