The process of waiting is a stressful one. After years of back pain and overly large breast I went to the Dr in Feb for a breast check up for pain. She referred me to a breast specialist. From there I saw a surgeon. BCBS approved me about 2 weeks ago. Date is set for July 8th. I'm super excited. I'm a 38H looking to be reduced to C cup.

Congratulations! Sometimes they can't take as much a we want but they can usually get pretty close. I was hoping for a C from an M. They are in the D/E range now but likely to be a little smaller when they finish healing. It is such a relief to have that weight gone! My back feels so much better. I can even breath more easily, an unexpected bonus. You are going to love it!

I had my surgery today. It was a 7:30 at Beth Israel Hospital. Dr. Adam Tobias performed it. His staff was excellent. Will be able to take my head off on Sunday and shower. No drains or stitches. They used a glue to seal. Will update more pics Sunday.

Hi all.

So today I had my breast reduction at 7:30 AM at Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital in Boston.
I was sent home at 2 or so.
I can't really sleep. Really sore. Surgeon didn't use stitches or drains. I got sealed with glue. What a plus. I'll keep you all updated with pics on Sunday.that is when I can take off my bra to shower.
