Hi, I'm 66. My bra size is 32GGG or 32H. My mid back and spine are constantly in pain. At the age of 9, I had surgery to remove a rock sized fibroid from my breast & three subsequent surgeries to remove large fibroids and, with the development of Mammography they stopped operating. I have always been athletic and now do yoga and walk but no amount of stretching and relaxation is making this pain abate. Would I be at high risk for breast reduction. Would I heal properly at my age?
