I started to blossom at the age of 15 with a bra size of 32D. Now at 54, 5'3, 135 pounds I have a bra size of 36DD. I am way too top heavy and feel all the discomforts that come with the territory! Bathing suits are a pain to find! Tank tops during the summer look ridiculous and so on! I have needed a BR for YEARS and chicken out everytime! I am now at whits end and have consulted 3 PS. I found the one I intend to go with. He said he would remove about 600 - 800g per breast! Yikes! I have been assured that my PPO will approve this surgery in the next two weeks. My surgery can take place in mid June 2012. I am so afraid of the drain(s) removal and my reaction to the pain meds at post-op! I am a true CHICKEN! However, I do know I need to do this! I have complete support from my husband aka my nurse to be. I am praying that I won't chicken out and will woman-up and proceed with a much needed procedure! Any words of wisdom would be so appreciated! Thank you.........
