This will be my second time trying to have a breasts reduction surgery. Last year around this time I was scheduled to have the surgery but for reasons beyond my control it had to be cancelled twice. After the second cancellation I lost my insurance and gave up on pursuing the surgery. A year has now gone by and my neck and back pains have not gotten any better so I decided to try again. I was able to get my insurance back and was told I didn't have to go through the whole process since I've already been approved before. So now I'm just waiting for my ps to give me a new surgery date and I'm hoping it is sometime soon...

Surgery date

So my doctor's office called me and scheduled my surgery for June 9th which is about 2 1/2 weeks away. I'm so excited and ready to be done with the heavy fun bags. I don't know if it's just in my mind but I swear I feel like the pain is getting worst the closer I get to the date the more pain my back and neck have....

Starting to get nervous

Idk why I'm starting to get nervous now. I'm about 8 days away from my surgery. I had a mammogram done yesterday as well as a physical. But I've just been reading things about complications with anesthesia and I think I made myself nervous for no damn reason. I've never been under so I don't know how my body will react to the medications... Anyone else psyched themselves out for no reason before their surgery?

SAME. My surgery is June 10th, and while I am so excited, I'm so nervous just for the anesthesia. I know it'll be worth it, but still.

Yea, everyone keeps telling me to just keep praying and it will all work out so that's what I'm gonna do. Good luck with your surgery. Let me know how it goes please!

I hope that your surgery is a success. I am at the beginning of the process. I too saw Dr. Glasburg but I felt like it was too much of an assembly line, so I am looking forward to your post to see your experience with him. Good Luck!

Yes, I do know what you mean when you say assembly line... Lol. My friend recommended him to me and he did an excellent job with her last year which was why I decided to go with him. I will definitely keep you updated and I'll post as many pics as I can. Thanks!

Yes, yes and yes! In fact I cancelled the first one 24 hrs before. Then in January I suddenly felt ready and took a last minute cancellation April 1st. Best thing I have ever done. EVERY thing I was scared of did not happen , pain, bad healing , left too big. Take a deep breath and then just do it- Before you know it you will be on the other side with little delicate boobs. Best of luck- you got this.

Yes that is me! My mother has been telling me "you know God has got this, so why are you worried?" I know it's true but I guess you always worry about the unknown... It'll all work out though and I can't wait for us to share our stories afterwards. Our surgeries are only a couple days apart...

I know boo!!! What size do you think u want to be? I originally wanted to be a C cup but doctor thinks otherwise. A D-cup, he says, is sufficient for my size.

I want to be a large D after the surgery because I want to lose weight and just in case my boobs get smaller after the weight loss I can be ok with it. I'm a big girl so I know he probably won't do it too small.
