[OT] I am scared

Another friend had a cyst, but I don't think she ever had surgery since the pain went away and surgery didn't seem necessary any longer. Good luck, and don't panic! {{{{Everyone}}}}} Thank you so much for your support, purrs, advice and experiences. It has made me feel a little less scared and a little more hopeful. You guys are the best!

[OT] I am scared
wrote in message ... Last week, I had a CT scan of my abdomen; they were thinking I may have gallstones. They did the scan of my entire abdominal area, including pelvis. I have an ovarian cyst. And I am scared. Anybody here have experience with this? Ginger-lyn off to find a referral to a gynecologist Yes, I had gallstones AND an ovarian cyst at the same time (the two conditions are unrelated). Some cysts are quite small and go away by themselves, some need to be removed. Mine was four inches in diameter when they found it, and six inches by the time they removed it, it was non-malignant, but had pretty much taken over the entire ovary, so my left ovary and fallopian tube were removed along with the cyst. I have a big scar, but I was never going to model bikinis anyway so it's no great worry. It was classed as major surgery, and I couldn't sit up for a couple of days, or drive for six weeks. I've made a full recovery now. Get thee to a gynecologist and find out if it's going to go away, or if it needs taking out. Love Jeanette |
