I will be having breast reduction surgery in a few...

I will be having breast reduction surgery in a few days and I have to say the process of getting approved has been relatively easy. I did call my insurance company prior to speaking to a PS to see if I even had any qualifications and I met them all. Thankful for a great PS staff that is very knowledgable in the approval process. I am nervous and anxious about how they will look. I am a 38 DD and insurance requires 1000 total to be removed. After discussions with my PS he feels I will be where I need to be comfortably. I just want my back to stop hurting and to be able to wear things without having to buy bigger sizes just for my top to fit in...or not have to pin them closed for gaping. Not big on photos and how they look before. Wish me luck it's only three days away! Thanks to everyone for all the helpful tips that gave been shared.

That's great news!!! I have been scheduled for October 30th. I'm excited & nervous @ the same time. My size is about 36DD-DDD it was a long process so it seems, but I am also looking forward to not being in pain anymore. Good luck on everything & do keep us posted.

Doubting my self

SassySRS
I am day four days post op and I have to say it's been rough. Having an allergic reaction to something. Had an awful stay at the hospital. The wrap is so tight I can't breath and the doctor is honestly being a jerk! I know after reading other post things will get better but hard to see light at the end of the tunnel.

Are you serious? What's going on? This makes no sense. I was wondering why we hadn't heard from you. O wow

Just was very upset bad day yesterday. Just feel kinda abandoned by the doctor. Has anyone else's PS wrapped them for an entire week with no bathing? My bandages are so tight they cut me.

I haven't had my procedure yet, but I definitely don't think that should be going on. Have you spoken to PS directly or are you speaking to the staff?
October 23, 2014
I spoke to both. The doctor upset me by being sarcastic. I have had the same bandages on since last Friday and I don't go back until this Friday. The smell Isnt good and i calling tomorrow. Not sure this is a normal procedure to be wrapped this long.
