I've been having back problems due to my dd breast. I'm a competitive runner so the extra volume certainly makes running a lot more painful/uncomfortable. Not to mention I'm sick and tired of having to contain them with multiple sports bras. I'm 5'2, 118 lbs , 34dd my insurance requires that 500cc be removed from each breast, I'm wondering if that is going to reduce me to nothing or give me a nice b or c cup?
