Re: My Breast Reduction
Ok, this is too amusing not to share. I was talking to someone online, and trying to explain to her that my old bras were HUGE. I told her the underwires were bigger than a headband. She thought I was kidding, so I took a picture. And now I'm gonna share it here. LOL

Re: My Breast Reduction
I know people won't care, but it's just a hold up I have. Like, "Oh, they'll never be "normal" again." or whatever. And $21k? Mine was around $5k. Outpaitent I suppose is what makes it cheaper. Exactly. I mean, it kind of sucks that they're there, but I'm starting to not notice the scars as much anymore. I am not shy about the scars, and I'm sure they'd understand. |

Re: My Breast Reduction
So far, the facility fee is something like $8850, and the surgeon's fee is $9500. Anesthesiologist's fee is $2500. Pathology's fee $500. What I'm not pleased about is the anesthesiologist is NOT an in-network provider. Thankfully, my insurance DOES cover out-of-network providers... just not at the same rate as in-network providers. We'll have to wait and see how this turns out. Theoretically, ALL of it should have cost me no more than my $175 copay. |

Re: My Breast Reduction
Since my parents paid, I don't know the actual price nor the breakdown of the fees. I think my surgeon's fee was something like $2,000. I knew her personally. And I think the rest was hospital and anesthesiologist fees. That sucks about insurance problems. |

Re: My Breast Reduction
Almost all of my bruising is gone! Figured I'd put it in before/after context, too. Scary, huh? I'm still measuring at DDD, though. That doesn't make me too happy. Still better than an L, I guess.

Re: My Breast Reduction
Oh my God, you're looking awesome! And even though you're at a DDD, you're looking great. I wanted to be a C, but I'm a D, but again, it's better than before. I am a 34D now. It's a pretty good size. Clothes fit. I don't feel as objectified. I am more confident. I am tall, which may have made my boobs look smaller. I'm 5'7" and 135lbs. |
