How many referrals for breast reduction showing the medical necessity would you recommend?

Lindsey26
I am 26, had an overly large bust since 12. By some miracle, no stretch marks. At 120lbs, I was down to 34dd. I put on weight, have slowly been losing it, my chest is not getting smaller. Back pain is constant. my closest bras to fitting are 38Ddd. Running is difficult w/ size. I called insurance co, and to be approved, removal > 600 grams. I have an appt w/ gp, but is that sufficient? I am getting a little desperate, as my life is basically halted because of this. I would appreciate any advice.
