@jilleduffy@mastodon.social I got a reduction done, 2lb off one side, 1.5lb off the other. The recovery was uncomfortable, but zero regrets and I'm so much happier. It's been well over a decade and it got rid of the shoulder, back, and neck aches. Had to fight with my surgeon for the size I wanted and I wish he'd made them smaller.

@BritishKoalaTea@social.coop I'm so glad to hear you had great results. That was a LOT of weight pulling on you! Surgeons I interviewed told me that there's a limit to how small they can go & still do the procedure well. A lot of doctors *online* talk about keeping the patient "in proportion," though that angle seems more subjective I keep hearing that over time, many women who have had reductions see their breast size increase, not always to a huge extent, but some. Has that happened to you?
