Will Blue Cross & Blue Shield cover the removal of gynecomastia? (Photo)

stylesp
I've dealt with Gyno all through my teens and early adulthood. I thought I would learn to accept this but I can't. I can't run or lift weights because no matter what I do they won't go away. Will my insurance cover all or most of the cost of the surgery? Is there a way of getting the surgery so that I'm not too scarred and can still remove my shirt and people won't notice? I'm desperate at this point. Any help would be appreciated.
