Yesterday morning I got up and headed to the hospital for my surgery. Since my Doctor didn’t know exactly what was going on in there, she did a diagnostic laproscopic surgery. We talked about and agreed to the possibility that she may have to remove one ovary, which apparently was the right choice.
Not only did I have more cysts, she also found Endometriosis, and a cyst growing inside the ovary. So, my doc made the decision to remove the right ovary. She seems to think the other side will be ok for at least a couple more years, so I get to keep that one for now. I hope she’s right. I would prefer not to go through this again for a while.
I’m feeling pretty good, thanks to my friends, Percocet and Naproxen. I have three small cuts on my stomach that should heal up pretty quickly. As long as I don’t move, I don’t hurt. So far, trying to roll over in my bed has been the most painful.
I’m taking it easy today, catching up on some shows, and hopefully getting a little nap in this afternoon. It feels good to be able to just sit and not have to do anything for a change.
I hope you have a fast recovery, my friend! I’m thinking of you. Take enough of a nap for two of us, please.
Sounds like it went well! I’ve been away from the blog world too long — hope you have a speedy recovery and that the procedure will be successful in terms of getting rid of the pain!
