Praise the Lord, and pass the ammunition, SWMBO and I went down to see her female Doc yesterday to discuss a battery of tests that she had run due to some swelling and odd female issues.
Needless to say, the ever helpful internet gave us 2 possibilities with the symptoms she was having
1. Ovarian Cancer, this scared the shiat out of me...
2. Ovarian Cyst, while this doesn't scare me, I'm not meh about it ether
so, after the last test, (2 weeks ago) her doc was unavailable for a consultation, so all we got was a nurses call back, saying we should come back in 4 weeks (nov 6th) for another scan, and then they would see... We didn't want to talk to a nurse, we wanted some face time with a Doc, and a specific doc at that
well it turns out that during our scheduled appointment time, our doc was having some scans of his own at the ER. He had worked up a really nasty case of kidney stones, and in his own words "was stoned off his arse on a gurney down the hall" ... and he apologized profusely about not being available to talk to us.
So here is what we found out, she has a 6cm diameter Simple ovarian cyst, that should start to resolve itself now that she is on medicine for it, and if in 2 weeks it is not any smaller on the scan, we will get to have another trip to an OR for some additional holes in my wifes abdomen.
Gals... yall are sure expensive, but worth every penny
I am just so happy that SWMBO and I don't have to face ovarian cancer
