Reduction

I feel like I am exposing myself...I am interested in getting a breast reduction. I wanted to know if any of you have had/know anyone who has been through this experience and if there are any requirements so insurance will cover it. I have heard they have to take so many grams from each breast, or if I need to have some kind of paperwork done. Any input would be greatly appreciated! I want to make sure I do this right!

One of my sisters had a breast reduction with no regrets! Her back use to be in pain a lot, but no more. Her insurance paid for it since it was related to her health. :)

Yep, back pain qualifies you for the reduction I'm pretty sure. Good luck.
