I'm a 31 year old mom of one in desperate need of a breast reduction. I'm a size 36K and and basically crippled by the weight of my breast. Are there any surgeons in the NYC area that accept my insurance? I have Affinity (sidebar: I've already tried Long Island Medical Group, it isn't for me)
I would like to go as small as a DD. Ive had big boobs since 4th grade and all the fun stuff that goes with them. Severe back and shoulder pain to the point where I cant get up after work. They also limit what I do for a job and at work. When I went in for a consultation she said Id probably lose my nipples and she wants to go lower. Im worried about going too small and still being me.
I have a 34 band size and i'm a K cup. I'm in so much pain, I can't breathe or sleep properly, my chest is numb, can't sit up straight or move right, I can't participate in life. Insurance didn't give a reason. The surgeon said she'd take around three pounds from each boob, so that meets the removal requirements - they've also rejected all my appeals without a reason. We have Anthem BCBS. I can't pay the 30k out of pocket - that's a whole year of college tuition, but I need this. Thank you
21. Wanted reduction since 16. Planning on having children around 30, final reduction after having children. Breasts are mostly tissue and not looseable fat, as proven by a history of steady breast size through yoyoing weight. I want my breast tissue and nipple to stay intact, and I'll deal with reducing tissue/moving the nipple after breastfeeding. Goal: lift so I feel better going braless (which I've been doing for 5 years) and remove some weight loss skin. And cost? Insurance won't cover.
I am 44 year old female with a 32-34k bra cup size. I am 5'6 174 pounds. For insurance to cover the operation they require 800 grams each side. I am sure I have the tissue since I have very dense breasts. Just wondering about how much smaller I will be? I don't want to end up as a B or large C cup.
I am 44 years old I have had huge breasts since I was a teen. At 22 a saw a plastic surgeon and they said I needed to be 180 or less I am 5'10 and now am 270Lb. I have been trying for all these years to get there and I know it never happen. I just want them gone. I am tired os suffering with them. My bra size is 40 K. I know that the band size seems small for my weight but it never changes more than a size when I do loose weight. My cup only changes one.
I can't say that I have the sad story of growing up with large breast as this was not the case for me. My breast showed up at the age of 21during my 1st pregnancy. I went from a 34C and as of today I am now a 36K. After giving birth I went back to the doctor several times to to ask for something to help them return to their original size but nothing could be done. I have suffered severe back pain and diagnosed with a Degenerative Disc Disorder. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
26 years old, had a reduction one month ago. I know cup sizes are variable however I was a 12K (measured before surgery) and my surgeon indicated that after, I'd be roughly a DD-E cup. I realise there will be swelling but the bra size I fit most comfortably in currently is an old 10HH that I had. I still have neck and shoulder pain and the same upsetting experience with clothes/bras not fitting. I'm okay with the shape but the size is still far too big for me. Should I ask about a revision?
