I have my surgery on April 14th. I am glad my insurance didn't make me go through all those hoops. I went for my consultation and less than a week later, my insurance approved the surgery.
Hi Felicia’sTheOne. I pray all is well🙏❤️
@@joisimone5609, thank you. So far everything is going good. I go my one week appointment tomorrow. I had my drains taken out on Friday. I
Felicia'sTheOne great! My daughter has a consultation scheduled for next month. Be blessed.
What insurance is that ?
@@kaseannabrown7331 my insurance is Acclaim. My doctor that did my surgery works under the same company that I work for. So, I don't know if that had anything to do with it.
Yes they want you to see a physical therapist, chiropractor, massage therapist, need to be on ibuprofen, Motrin, and also pain Medications. And the BEST part is that even after you’ve done all these things, they can deny you and make you start all over again. Also let’s not forget the fact they make you lose weight because they want to see if they go away that way and even if it doesn’t go away, they can still keep denying you. Reductions are almost impossible to get in america
Sad!
Shouldnt the lift part be included with a reduction hopefully as the reduction is a need not a cosmetic want.
when they do the reduction, they usually also do a lift
are lumps normal after breast reduction surgery
I really need a breast reduction
How do i get in contact with someone who knows how to het insurance to pay for my surgery! I have man boobs and a tummy pouch
Can large heavy breasts cause bursitis in the shoulders ?
Yes because I have to a get cortisteriod shot every five month for Shoulder pain.
thank you so much
Wait I'm 16 and my insurances wont cover then 🙄
You sure? Sometimes companies Wait until you’re 20 to make sure you’re fully developed.
@@PixelDoodles wait really? I didn't know but yea im sure thx for telling me
@@PixelDoodles shit really? ill be turning 19 soon, and i really want and need mine done. also, i wish you luck @Nashla
My doctor told me it’s easier to get when your 18 or over
My friend had hers done when she 15, it’s definitely possible.
Mam..This type of insurance available in India?plz tell me.. I face the this type of problems..😣😔😞
A highly educated doctor that says constant “ummms” is my biggest peeve.
Like why?
Huge breasts are often the result of too much dairy or too much farm fresh foods in the diet. I am flat chested and my diet consists of potato crisps, noodles, doughnuts and sandwiches. Modern foods are making us less busty. Who would have thought?
Um no they’re the results of GENETICS
I’m lactose intolerant and I have DDDs.....
@@pictusexotica27 cutting back on dairy should reduce your cup size.
Very Smart!!! I haven’t had dairy in years or else my stomach wants to kill me and my breast size hasn’t changed at all
You’re really stupid
