Any updates?

I finally had the surgery about 2 weeks ago....I went into the hospital about 2 days after they told me I must do it soon or it will be dangerous. The doctors decided to do it thru 3 small holes in my stomach because they didn't want to cut open a big incision and irritate the uterus. In the end, they didn't cut the cyst out, they just sucked out the stuff inside to check out if it was cancer or not. They sent the stuff to the lab and I found out on thursday that it is NOT cancer.

But now I have three small holes in my stomach and one of them is not healing too well....at least the baby is fine, just the heartrate is a bit high. I have to go back to the doctors on monday again so they can check on my healing and also to see if the baby is doing good.

Thank you for everyone who cares about me....I'll have to be careful for the next 2 months after the surgery to make sure the baby is fine but at least I don't have cancer! The bad news is that because the doctor didn't cut the cyst away (she only drained it), she said there is a chance for it to come back...but if it does, she said she will remove it completely when I have the baby via c-section. She doesn't want me to have another big surgery while I'm pregnant.

You are not the only one suffer from sickness. Cheer up will help you recover sooner and better.

Thank you for everyone's replies...
I am now almost 8 months pregnant and this baby is BIG! Always kicking around....so I am not worried. But unfortunately, the doctors told me that my cyst came back after the surgery...this side on both left and right ovaries. Which means I won't be able to deliver the baby naturally...I will have to have a C-section so they can cut out the cysts at the same time. I am OK with this decision because I am scared of childbirth..but I am also very worried about what will happen during and after the surgery. If I have a C-section and also internal surgery to remove the cysts, it might mean I will not be able to recover for about 2 months after the baby is born. How will I be able to carry my baby around or feed her or even change her diaper? Sigh...

Another thing that is currently on my mind is that I went to another forum and read some posts about me that hurt me a lot. Supposedly a LYK member saw me around the time after I had my surgery and wrote some nasty things about the way I looked. Come on...I was 4 months pregnant at the time (OK, I looked fat, not pregnant) and I just had surgery. How can she expect me to look like a normal 20+ year old? I used to be less than 100lbs, but during that time, I was recovering from the surgery and also trying to keep my baby..I was probably 30lbs heavier than I normally is. Also I was throwing up and getting dizzy from the morphine and the drugs they gave me to keep the pain away...but instead, she goes around telling people how ugly I look! The truth is, I also know how she looks and I don't really think it is her right to make comments about other people when she is not all that ravishing either. I have seen her many times and I have never referred to her looks online (or her husband's looks..if I had to comment). Right now I'm as fat as a whale, worrying about the baby, the C-section and the cysts removal surgery..and my recurring cysts and all I can think about is how she told others I was "ugly" for being a mom and a woman who just had surgery while worrying about cancer.

Sigh...I know I shouldn't be easily affected by comments made by others but it's been a really depressing year for me. I've had a really tough time with this pregnancy as well as worrying about cancer and all others can talk about is the way I physically look. It's a sad world we've come to when people overlook your illness and your physical well-being to comment on your physical looks.

I really would like to tell her to her face one day to imagine herself trying to become pregnant, bleed, have a doctor tell you that you might have cancer, go through surgery in your 4th month, then try to keep the baby..and then have a doctor tell you that your cysts have come back and you will have to have surgery again all within a couple months. I would like to see how well she would cope with her mental, emotional and physical well being. The last thing on my mind right now is how I look...I'd rather worry about how healthy the baby is and how I would be after the surgery. I don't think gaining weight for my baby or becoming a C9 but I'd never consider myself "ugly" for being a mother and a recovering surgery patient.

She might consider me a crybaby and attack me in this thread but I'm sure I've gone through much more in life than she has and unless she becomes a mother one day or has someone tell her she might have cancer, she has no idea how inconsiderate and hurtful her comments are.

aw...don't be so upset
you're a mother
and mothers are beautiful no matter what
just ignore that person
she's just showing what she's made of if the only thing that goes through her mind is appearances
especially when she's not gorgeous herself
she probably said all those hurtful things to make herself feel better about herself
to be honest that's really usually the reason behind girls calling other girls ugly
so that they feel superior and prettier
everyone does that once in a while
try to ignore it and forgive her

I've seen her several times too and, er... yeah, she's not in a position to criticize how other people look... if you know what I mean...

I think she and her husband are planning to have baby. I thought some people are better off not reproducing! But, when the the day comes she is 8 months pregnant and  30 pounds heavier, I hope she won't kill herself seeing her image in the mirror.

Cheer up girl! Think positive! You are looking forward to a beautiful baby very soon!

new new update

had baby, removed 2 cysts during the c-section
but after the baby, i still had pain and swelling after 3 months
also...kept feeling unwell and lost 38lbs in 3 months...
so i'm going back to surgery AGAIN tomorrow...

this will be my THIRD surgery in less than a year
and this time, my doctor said it's URGENT...she actually got me a spot on the operating list in less than a week

hopefully everything will be fine
but this time my doc said she might have to take a tissue sample from my uterus ...and maybe remove my ovary...
i am hoping it is not cancer or anything bad.....
