Asked By:Dyona210 in Philadelphia, PA

Am I eligible for breast reduction so I can began exercising to get off this weight? I dont want to be this size. My breast make it so hard for me to do anything. It shortens my breath, hurts my back and shoulders, and leave indentation marks. Its hard for me to even find the right size bras and shirts. Please say you're able to help me.
