Now They know
I'm feeling cold tonight. It's early yet, so I imagine I'll be roasting by about 10PM.
It's odd how this stupid cyst has taken over my brain in some respects. My first thought to the above was that I'll be plenty hot once I have surgery and am in menopause. I wonder if the stupid thing is growing since I had the u/s? I can't sit on the bed in front of the laptop like I used to and am trying to figure out whether it's because I'm more conscious of how my abdomen feels or if things have changed over the last two weeks.
I told my boss about my cyst and that it could be 6 weeks for me to return. My coworker looked panicked that she would be the one expected to be there every day like I am now. Her longest time not being sick in the last year is 9 weeks. They were talking about it in the lab today and she asked what he'd do if I was gone post op and she ended up not being able to come in. He said, "I'll just close the place down and retire.". Gah!
Also, the feelings of fatigue are still making themselves known, my low back was killing me and lots of brain fog. Otherwise I feel really well. Just a bit of anxiety, but I think that's normal, considering... I was looking forward to having a real holiday celebration with decorations, but now I feel in limbo until I find out more from the GYN.
I need a cruise. Yep, that would work.
Still waiting for that GYN appt and wondering what she's going to tell me. Add the looking for a 2nd opinion... I wonder if I should be lining up a 2nd opinion doc NOW? Oh yeah, gotta find that GYN/ONC name I found the other day. Then I'll have it ready when I'm asking for the referral to get a 2nd op.
