no results yet
here's the abbreviated version:
I go in for the surgery, and wait...
for a long time
the doctor decides after reviewing my case again that she'd rather not do the surgery
she wants to be cautious, because, of course, I am pregnant and it is all on my cervix
so instead, she just went in for a looksie
got in there and said, let's do a biopsy
apparently, the growths are all in one small part of my cervix, huzzah, contained
however, it's very heavy in that one small area, which makes her worry
so she did a biopsy
no results yet, could be up to another 9 days
every three months she'll check the progress of the growths
if she doesn't have to do the surgery, she won't until after I give birth
in fact, as of this moment, I'm scheduled 6 weeks after I give birth to have it done
the catch is that the procedure burns the cervix and there is a high likelyhood that I won't be able to carry another baby after this
the good news: she won't let me go past my due date, so it'll be early or on time, which suits me fine
more when I hear it
