Dr. Stroup is fantastic

So I got my reduction on April 27th. I was pre-approved by insurance (Anthem) and thought everything was good to go. I had the surgery according to my insurance guidelines, and am extremely unhappy with the result (although, my surgeon did an excellent job). I'm way smaller than I wanted to be and have been really having issues adjusting and accepting my new shape. My surgeon said he took out the exact amount required by insurance. However, insurance is NOW refusing to pay and claiming that the surgery was cosmetic and not medically necessary. I'm sick to my stomach. Not only am I stuck with much smaller breasts than I originally asked for, but now I have to pay for the surgery despite being pre-approved?! I've never heard of such a thing! Has this happened to anyone else? I have Anthem insurance. When I called, they actually called my Dr.'s office to confirm that it was medically necessary. They said they will re-submit the claim and see what happens. Please, has anyone had this experience? I'm really depressed...

So I've been pretty emotional lately about my small size. However, I've noticed within the last few days that my boobs were rounding out a bit and looking much more voluptuous (and frankly, quite a bit larger!) I've been so happy I can't stop staring at them and wondering why j was so upset with them a few days ago. Then it dawned on me....I got my period. So, my happiness has turned back to sadness. How's that for an emotional roller coaster?! To those of you who have experienced this before, are my boobs just temporarily larger because of my period or are they just filling out more since I'm about 2.5 weeks out from surgery. Don't want to get my hopes up if these puppies are going to majorly shrink back down next week. Help!

I'm feeling a little emotional today, which I know from reading all the reviews that that is normal, but I'm majorly regretting my decision to have insurance pay for my surgery. When I went in for my consultation, I said that I wanted a full C or a D in order to keep my proportions. Then my doctor submitted a request to my insurance company, which got approved easily. However, when I showed up for surgery (didn't have another appointment in between consultation and surgery), my doctor informed me that I would be a B after surgery. I told him I wasn't comfortable with that, but I was literally already in the hospital all ready for surgery. Sure enough, I'm a B and I absolutely hate it. I don't feel like myself and feel way out of proportion. I'm hoping this feeling is temporary, but I majorly regret having an insurance company dictate what I do to my body. Wish I would have saved up for a few years and made my own decision.
