Is a breast reduction from a 34DD to a 34B plausible with insurance? (photos)

Hi, I'm 4'11" and 19 years old. I'm a 34DD and I have extreme back pain, its impossible to even get through a full day of work and class without tylenol and ibuprofen on my side. I weigh 112 lbs; I'm quite petite but with very large breasts. Is it possible that if my surgery were covered by insurance that I can go down to a size as small as 34B?
