I have always had large breasts and think that I might be a good candidate. I am 31, 5'6", 160 lbs, and a 38DD, but only wear sports bras for the support, but they still leave indentation marks on my shoulders. I have constant back pain, and recently gave even noticed that after excercising skin from the underside of my breasts runs against my torso and is scabbing. Where do I begin, talk to my family doctor? A surgeon? A chiropractor? What steps do I take to help ensure it is covered by insurance?
