One Year Post-Op: 25 Year Old From 34J to 36D

WORTH IT
This is probably too early to start one of these, but that's okay. I, like many on here, have struggled with being chesty since puberty. I have finally come to the conclusion that maybe, possibly, it will not fix itself no matter how many times I exercise or how much money I spend on a bra. I am 5'6" and 190 pounds with a 34J bra size currently. I have constant soreness in my shoulder/back/neck area that fades from uncomfortable to terrible. My posture has suffered, my clothes fit poorly, and the attention my chest draws is a constant struggle.
After speaking with a few people, I decided to speak with my GP. She agreed I was a good candidate and sent a referral in to a PS in my area. I am currently waiting for news to see when my consultation will be.
I want to thank everyone who posts on here, because it has helped ease some worry and has also given me a lot of interesting things to think about and discuss.

Its never too early!! I had mine done in Regina, do you know your surgeon's name? Dr. Ledding did mine but I know of a few girls who used other doctors here as well. I waited 10 months (even though they said it would be 1.5 years! Good Luck!!

That's who I'm consulting with! He did a friend of mine, and I've heard lots of good things. I called the office in December and the office staff explained that any referrals in December will get contacted in January to know about a consultation date… here's hoping!

Still waiting...
I have noticed that now that I am in the nothing-to-do-but-wait phase I am just getting more and more frustrated with my large chest. I am trying to do some workouts, but I am in so much pain afterwards that I have to take a break for a few days. I try to wear something cute and I just feel gross.
I should hear soon about a consultation date I hope. At least then I have something to look forward to...

Thanks for the review and all the photos! Looking at Dr Ledding for a BR as well. This was really helpful!

Oh my gosh!
So I was super annoyed because I talked to the surgeon's office and they hadn't gotten my referral last week. So I got it resent, and then today they STILL hadn't gotten it. So I took matters into my own hands and got it sent to myself and forwarded on. And by some crazy chance, they had a cancellation for a consult and instead of waiting until May (four months) I am going for my consult in TWO DAYS! I hadn't even let myself start coming up with a list of questions because I thought I'd have a super long wait before the consult. Any suggestions of questions would be greatly appreciated! So excited!!!
