Hi Fallmare,

I can understand your frustrations - everything can feel like such a long process when waiting for answers for each step. Hopefully you're on the right track and I hope you get the information you need soon.

Wishing you all the best,

Oh vent away! My surgery to remove my ovarian cyst was delayed due to covid!! Why must it always be prioritised ahead of every other health condition?!

Hang in there..hope you get good results. My surgery is tomorrow so I'm nervous as hell about that! I'm just taking things one step at a time. 

Hello sugarsnap3

This covid malarkey is getting very tiresome with it being used for a lot of things.. 

I don't diss it at all but..... We got to get back to some sort of normal life... 

Hope all goes well for you tomorrow x

I'll message in a day or so to see how you are if that's OK. 

I suffer from extreme health anxiety and its been 5 months of waiting and having procedures. 

Thankyou I'm hanging in there x

Waiting is so frustrating l hope that you will get good results soon. Covid-19 is blamed for everything at the moment it's time life moved on . I have ovarian surgery next Tuesday and am hoping that it's not cancelled , The surgeon has been great so l am hopeful that l will be sorted shortly. I hope your next appointment goes well 

Hello Alfieisastar

Fingers crossed for next tuesday.  Hope it all goes well. 

Yes it's shocking. It's so unfair 

Thankyou so much x so do I. 

Oh thanks so much for your well wishes. I had my surgery yesterday and everything went well thankfully. I need to get biopsy results back but I've been told that it looks like a dermoid cyst which are typically benign. I'm just resting in hospital now, I'm a bit sore around my pelvis and stomach but the team are giving me painkillers to manage any pain or discomfort. My consultant will be around today to check up on me to see how I'm getting on. I'll probably get the biopsy results back in a few weeks, haven't been told yet but the gynaecologist didn't need to remove my right ovary. There was a risk that it would need to be removed and I had just kind of resigned myself to the fact that if it needed to be removed, so be it but I'm relieved it wasn't. I can actually feel the cyst gone from my body..it was so large and I've been told it could have been affecting my bladder and bowels.

Keep us updated on how you get on x

Good morning
