I made the biggest mistake by not going through with my surgery in 2019 right before CoVid hit.
I got Scared. For 3 years I have regretted it and now I ready to get it done. 1st consultation is Friday July 15th

Wow! I'm smiling from ear to ear. Many years ago I had the most embarrassing and painful days of my life. After standing in an Amusement Park Ride for over an hour. When I finally took my seat the safety bar would not catch because my breast were to big. I was yelled at by the other riders for holding up the ride and finally park staff asked me to get off. This also meant I had to walk, the walk of shame back down through the waiting people. All snickering" she is too big, they kicked her off". This was the day that I decided to get a breast reduction. It took more than 10 years for it to happen but I did it. Well today I am back at that amusement park and although, mentally Im scared and scare'd. I'll be getting back on the rides again. I'm to old for these damn rides and I'll probably get sick but I have to do this to heal. Pray for me.

This was by far the best story. I am 40 and my insurance denied me twice. I am a HH and I hate them. I wanted it done for my birthday but I was laid off from my job. My current insurance is a bit umm NO. I am going to pay for this out of pocket that's how much I want it done. Your post inspired me to move forward. (time to start saving)

I'm so sorry about your insurance; I was denied the first time and had to appeal. I know some people who have gone back at lease 3 times to their insurance company. Perhaps your surgeon would work on a payment plan for you since you are going to pay out of pocket. Good luck to you! It will be worth it in the end.

Your story is amazing and you look fantastic! I, too, pondered this for at least 10 years and finally had reduction May 16. I am 55! Now I feel younger and stand taller; no more shoulder and upper back tightness, pain, discomfort. Good for you! People with less than Ds cannot relate at all; that's why this community is so helpful. So many stories have mirrored my own. Take care and best wishes for that roller coaster ride!
