20 YO, 145 Lb, 5'3 with 34H Breasts Applying with BCBS

Hello everyone.

This site has been so useful and meaningful to me over the past few years. I have wanted a breast reduction for years and I have been waiting for the right opportunity. This past year I got a better insurance plan that doesn't specifically exclude breast reductions (like my last one). I also should have enough conservative treatment under my belt to have a compelling case. I have tried chiropractic adjustments and massages, multiple medications, physical therapy, and lost 25+ lbs with no improvements with my back pain.
I have been waiting for months for a plastic surgery consult because the surgeon my physician recommended within my health network was on maternity leave. I finally have my consult in one day! I cannot wait. Although I don't know what they will say, it's hard to believe that they won't support my claims that my breasts are too large for my frame.
Insurance is my only way to do this conserving that I (and my SO) are both college students. I can't possibly cover the expenses without help from health insurance. My college schedule also restricts my ability to schedule the surgery. I'm basically restricted to summer break, maybe winter break if I'm lucky.
I experience so much discomfort due to my large breast size. It effects my work life, schooling, relationship, and ability to exercise. I honestly want them to be gone and as small as possible!
I am planning to document my journey in hopes that it will inspire or comfort someone else. I rarely see people who are as young as I am, with as large of a gap between weight and breast size.

I met with doctor Amde. She was extremely friendly and knowledable. We went through patient history, did measurements, and found where I would be on the Schnur Scale. I came out in between 1.7 and 1.8. This means I would have to have about 410 g removed from each breast for insurance to cover the procedure. She estimated that she'd like to remove between 400 and 450 g for me, so I meet the requirements! Dr. Amde stated that she beleived I wouldn't have an issue receiving insurance coverage. The only hiccup is that I have 2 insurances currently through my divorced parents and it could cause confusion when applying. I should hear back in the next 3 weeks!
If I get an approval I am hoping to squeeze a surgery in before I resume school at the end of August. Due to my clean medical history and age she believes I should have a speedy recovery.
Now that I have the hope of getting the surgery I know I will be crushed if I can't get coverage.
Fingers crossed for a quick approval! Wish me luck.

Today when I was at work I recieved a phone call that I recieved the approval from BCBS. The earliest date they could schedule me was May 23rd, which is only two weeks away. I would've taken it in a heartbeat, but I move on the 20th and my SO is going out of town for a week on the 26th. Not going to lie, I'm so eager I almost took it anyway!
So, I took the next available date which was June 21st. They said they would send me a packet with surgery info soon in the mail. 5 weeks feels like an eternity, but I'm hoping the time will fly by. It will give me time to let my employer know, make sure my SO has the surgery day off, and stow away some money.
Is it weird that I still am anxious? I've spent so long trying not to get my hopes up, so that I don't get disappointed. It honestly doesn't even feel real. I don't know if it will feel real until the surgery day. Up until then I will probably be waiting for soemthing to go wrong. I have wanted this for so long!
