Jess’s Life Changing Breast Reduction

This is something I feel so uncomfortable doing, but on the flip side, I’ve had enough of feeling trapped inside my own body, chronic pain & feeling depressed.


I’ve set up this gofundme to raise money for a breast reduction. I have always had & struggled with being heavy chested, but as the years are going on, it’s effecting me more and more each day. I look in the mirror & hate myself. I sit down & have pain, I lie down & have pain. It’s a never ending battle.


I started this process in June 2020, after giving birth to my final baby in March. I fit all the criteria & am the ‘perfect’ candidate for a reduction. However, with the current situation of endless lockdowns & the strain on NHS, I’m no further forward than what I was 9 months ago. My first referral got rejected. I’m currently on the waiting list for clinical photos, & have been since September 2020, my 2nd referral isn’t even in the system yet.


I cannot continue to live this way, so I’ve looked into private clinics. I met an amazing surgeon who is able to do the surgery for me in June! However, this obviously comes at a cost, £8,400.

This surgery will change my life. My mental & physical health are in tatters at the moment due to my breasts, & I just want this nightmare to be over.


My current size is a 34KK, I am a normal weight, 27 years old, healthy, & this strain is crippling. I have indentations on my shoulder blades, loss of sensitivity in my back due to nerve damage, at risk of a curved spine later in life, deeply depressed, & also deal with chronic pain from shoulders to mid back every minute of every day.


Thanks if you read this far, if you can donate anything, even £2, I would appreciate it. It’s a hard time for everyone, I lost my job in December, so I can relate. I never ask for anything as I’m so head strong, but I’m at breaking point & can’t cope any more.

Thanks so much,

Jess
