Asked By:polanddepress in Virginia Beach, Virginia

I have poland syndrome. And was told I have to get a tissue expander to stretch my skin etc . My right side has no breast but my left side does and it’s. 36 D cup. That side hurts the most. And my breast saggs. Saying I need a lift on that side always gets my claim denied. What can I say so it can be approved as medically necessary
