Ohhhh....Thanks for letting me share.

First off, I live in Canada and it was free for me because it was causes medical problems. So I don't know the cost and all of that.

BUT...I can tell you that it is totally worth it. I had it done when I was 20, I am 25 now.

So this is how it goes. They take of the nipple, and then they cut under your breast and up it to where your nipple would be, make sense? Then they take out all the fat etc. So you have scars around your nipples, under your breasts, and from the bottom of your breasts to where your nipple is. The only scars that I can still see are the ones under my breasts.

I don't remember one bit of pain. But I was on Tylenol 3s.

I totally recommend it for anyone. I see women on the street with large breasts and I want to go up to them and tell them to get it done.

Please feel free to post more questions here OR email me through my email serenitycouragewisdom@hotmail.com

Are you talking about breast reduction? There's a message board here that discusses it:

Thanks for the info! My insurance down here in the a**crack of Texas won't cover it, no matter how many health problems it causes me, so the cost is a big issue. I've heard that it can run around 16K! Plus, I do plan on having kids and want to nurse them, so I'm afraid to do anything that would risk that ability, even a little. I am just anxiously waiting the day when I can get serious about having it done. The scarring makes me a little nervous, as I tend to get bad scars from even the smallest scratches. Anyhow -thanks for replying; I will check out the board that has further information soon. :o)
