Insurance Denied Coverage of Breast Reduction - How Can I Appeal?

Sad Sandy
My insurance has denied authorization for breast reduction surgery. What would be the best info to appeal their decision? I have a worn T5 in my curved spine and suffer from low back referred pain as well. I am very tired of living with these conditions. I also have fibromyalgia that my insurance reviewers considered to be the primary cause of my pain. I need some relief!
