Hi, everyone! My name is Mekia and I have been wanting a breast reduction since I started growing them out of control!!! I am currently 29 years old with two sons and I just want to live a full life! At 29, i haven't been to a dance, prom, party nor formal place because of these monsters on a shelf.

Waiting for Insurance Approval

Hi everyone! Since the BR will be my first surgery, I'm wondering how long this process usually takes? It's been a week so far and I'm patient just a bit anxious... Lol Since I'm a fulltime mommy and student, I won't be able to have the surgery until May/June. That's a far cry away when you feel your nerves are already tearing into pieces!
Pray for my nerves yall! Lol

It's definitely a huge weight on you. And when it is lifted, gosh, it's something magical that happens! Get the surgery when you can....soon as I heal up, I'm taking on the world! Lol

The Insurance Company Approved Me!!!!

So ladies, I just got the call an hour ago that my insurance approved me for my BR surgery!!!! I don't even know how to feel right now!!! It only took exactly one week!!! My situation was dire then!!! Mayday Mayday!!! Lol But I still have to pick my date for surgery...it's between May 16-June 13. I'm leaning more towards June 13 because I don't want to mess with my finals for school and the insurance co-pay is $2,014 which I have to have paid 3 weeks before my surgery. Which I only have a part of the monies. Well wish me luck!!! I would like to have it in May but I'll keep you updated!

Thanx Wintercrisp!!! Any tips you have I'm very open to hear! I don't have the slightest clue on what to buy, prepare for or anything....

Mine is March 29 there is a Article. On this site called 13 things I wish I knew before my breast reduction that will help you by the way I am from the Raleigh area. I saw you were from NC also good luck with your surgery

I didn't buy too much just two very stretchy nighties to slip into to because raising your arms afterwards is a little difficult. Two Berlei super soft post op surgical bras. Not sure if you have these in the States. Antiseptic wash for showering and gauze pads to go inside your bra. Use the wash on your hands prior to showering or touching your breasts. You don't want to transmit germs to your surgical sites. Definitely have someone help look after you, your home and to do your grocery shopping. Don't pick up heavy items more than a plate. Eat well protein and veg. A lot of resting and frequent small walks around the home. You will find that you will need to prop yourself up with pillows whilst sitting and sleeping.

I forgot to mention to drink plenty fluids after your op to quicken the removal of the anaesthetic out of your system.

Will do! I'm currently trying to lose as much weight before then so this info is critical for me!

Sweet!!! I was going to go to him!!! But decided Dr. Truesdale was closer. Both are exceptional PS though!!! I wanted to stay in the hospital overnight and I don't he did that.... But great Dr. pick for sure! Keep me posted on your progress.
When is your surgery again Wintercrisp?

Wow what insurance are you using.I pay 100 co- pay and its Blue Cross Blue care.that a lot.hope all goes well for you..I'm feeling great just sleepy

It's that expensive because they said I had not met my $1,000 deductible, so I had to pay that and my other cost. So it still was pretty expensive either way to me. I have BCBS of SC even though I live in NC!!! Lol

Omg dats crazy.. I all so have a $1,000 deductible and I am nowhere near that and I still paid $100 co-pay.. For my surgery. Smh
