Asked By:banalexia

I am 20 years old and I am a J cup. I have the WORST pain in my back, neck, and shoulders. I desperately need a reduction however I would need for my insurance to cover it. How do I begin? I have an appt with my new PCP but that's not until Nov. 4th. Do I HAVE to go to a PCP and have them refer me to a plastic surgeon ? Or can I start by going directly to the plastic surgeon myself? And which doctor is the one that should write my insurance company? Any and all info is welcomed and appreciated.
