36J cup with back/shoulder/neck pain - decided to go for it

ORIGINAL POST

Where I started

Fierce740231
WORTH IT$18,000

I am a 31 year old, currently 180 pounds 5'7" 36J cup (my right boobs is smaller closer to an I cup) who has wanted a breast reduction for 20 years. (These guys appeared when I was 11, and the reaction at school was no fun) I have had chronic rashes, back/shoulder/neck pain, and a hunched posture ( I call my neck my humpback). I have done physical therapy, medications, and myofascial release with no relief. At smaller weights my breasts would become slightly smaller but even at 125 pounds in my early to mid twenties the smallest I got down to was a big 34H/ small 34I cup, with no change in symptoms.

I was honestly scared of such a big procedure, but my sister had it done 5 years ago and it changed her quality of life. I really wanted to wait until after I had kids before doing this procedure in case of any interference with breastfeeding. After having a c-section for my twins in the summer of 2021 following a horrendous pregnancy, a surgery didn't seem so scary anymore and I decided to go for it!

Consultation

I had my consultation with Dr Maclennon a couple of weeks ago. She was very professional and understanding. She told me that she was pretty positive I would be covered by my insurance which was great. I felt very comfortable with her and heard a lot of good things so far. Originally I was told to plan for a date in June but then my insurance approval came back in just one day and they told me they had an cancellation on April 19th. So all of the sudden I’m a couple weeks away from surgery!
