Hey all,
Thanks to maxxtrot and everyone who weighed in with their opinion and shared their stories about breast reductions. Combined with these and my friend going - I had my consult yesterday with a surgeon.
He was very nice, explained everything, and I’m now booked in on April 2nd. I have concerns of course - what if things go wrong, what if I’m the 1/500 to have nipple death (gah!), or keloid scarring, or what if I throw up after (phobia with throwing up!), but I think the end results will be worth it.
I’m in Ontario, Canada so he has to take 150 grams each minimum to have it covered. Not a problem there lol! Although, did anyone hesitate a bit when you realized how much smaller your “smaller” breast would be? My right is significantly smaller than my left so I freaked a bit inside thinking “Oh…I’ll have nothing left on the right!” When I mentioned it, he said it’s common b/c we are so used to them being so large and assured me, it will be fine.
Mr. FF came too, and I’m happy he did. He learned a lot and asked good questions and said he didn’t see any red flags for me to choose not to do it. It’s as close to an agreement that I think I’ll get and I’m happy with it.
Concerns aside, I’m very excited when I think forward to how much lighter they will be and that I will be able to wear pretty bra’s!
Boo to being off my horse for 6 weeks though. When he found out I ride, he said “Please, please give it at least 6 weeks.” Ha, sounds like he knows us crazy horse folks and our desire to be back in the saddle.
I will keep y’all posted as it gets closer.
Thanks again!
Jenn
