Home from surgery

Oct 01, 2011

Surgery went very well.  Very little nausea.  Pain in easily controllable.  I'm able to keep my liquids down.  Doc did a CT scan to ensure that there were no leaks.  And viola...no leaks.  Great Surgery overall.  HOWEVER, he says, during that CT scan we found something else.  There is a 6cm tumor on one of my ovaries...well, I should say my only ovary, as I had a hysterectomy several years ago, and only had one left.  6 CM is quite large....and very disconcerting.  He got a GYN in to talk to me, This doctor did some blood tests to check for cancer, and did an ultrasound.  So, here I sit waiting to go for my consult with him to find out what the tests reveal. 
Looks like another surgery is in the works really soon. 
Wish me luck.
