I dislocated my breast bone in 1978 and that started a long history of chest pain. Finally, in 1998, I convinced my doctor that I really couldn't tolerate carting around "DD" cups on my sore chest, so he sent me to a plastic surgeon to see if he could "justify" to insurance for reduction.
I go to this doctor, now, this doctor was tiny - I mean, I'm only about 5' tall, I might get close to 5'2 in shoes, but this fellow was short than I was. And he was older.
These days I don't see a lot of doctors who are older than I was, but even then they were mostly contemporaries.... But I liked him.
As I was to discover, the nurses liked him too.
He examined me, explained what needed to happen and sent me on my way.
to be continued...

A little doctor.
But big at what he does.
Cant wait to hear the rest now El.
So sorry to hear of your injury and if I could get mine cut off I mean all of them I would.

@TiarasOceanView I agree... but I've never been too sure I was all that happy as a fe-type-male anyway...

I do not like the idea of needing to justify to some uninvolved insurance company how I would likt to get rid of my pain.
