    Breast Reduction anyone had procedure
    I have been told by my family doctor that he suggests a breast reduction, but at the same time cannot recommend a qualified good surgeon. I have heard horror stores about this operation, such as the breasts did not come out the same size or the nipples were placed incorrectly.
    I live in Toronto, Ontario and have been asking people, doctors, etc. for a good recommendation and cannot get any answers.
    If anyone has a success story and the name of the surgeon, it would be of an enormous aid to me. My shoulders are dug in from the straps and my back has ached for years.
    I am 5'-2" tall and weigh 126 lbs. and my breast size is 40C and I cannot get clothes to fit properly. I can never buy a two-piece outfit, as the bottom is much smaller the top.
    Please I wish to hear from anyone or everyone who has this operation done and their opinions.

    My ex had it about 4 years ago, It was done in Nashville TN. It was done in hosptal but she went home the same day.

    She had to have complete bed rest for a little over a week, and had limits on lifting and expercise for about 2 months. She experienced some pain for over 6 months.

    She will always have some scares on the under side of the breast and will have scars around the nipple.

    Beyond that it went well, everything fairly well balanced and same size

    To Fr__Chuck
    Thank you for youreponse regrding your ex who had breast surgery. It does relieve me somewhat, but the problem is--I am trying to get recommendations from people who had the breast reduction in Toronto, Ontario, Canada and what was their outcome. But many thanks for your comments and I hope the weather is nicer in Atlanta than it is here in Ontario.
