It's almost been a week, I'm healing....

Tomorrow will mark a week since my surgery. I am healing nicely. I am sore and bruised from the incisions, and still really tired. My tummy is still swollen too. But, that pain on my right side is GONE! Whoohoo!!!
So, the diagnosis. The cyst on my ovary was pea size by surgery date, so he left it alone. I was correct in where my pain was coming from. Everything else was FINE! The uterosacral ligaments that attach the uterus was where the pain was originating from. On the right ligament there were 5 " Cysts" with their own nerve endings. They are not supposed to be there. That was why I was in so much pain. I am just so happy it was something that could be fixed. Although, they are likely to grow back again at some point. Could be 3 years, or 3 months ( Hoping for years..) He was able to burn them off. There were a couple on the left side, so they are gone as well.
My Mom was able to come on short notice, and I was happy to have her here. I was able to sleep and rest. She made lots of yummy meals and treats.
Sorry this is short. I just thought I would give you all an update. I will hopefully be back online soon.
