Finally
Well the last two days have been a whirlwind. I went in yesterday for my scheduled surgery and it did not go as planned. I hadn’t met the specialist I was referred to at the hospital, so when I got there I was eager to see who’d be working on my snatch (lols). She examined me in the pre-op, and after checking out the cyst she’d be cutting out, decided that it was too large and too risky for her ability. Apparantly she’s “just a gyno”, and not an actual surgeon – she assumed from the referral details that the cyst was small, and easy to aspirate rather than have cut out. So she sent me home, and told me she’d refer me to a specialist who had access to an OR and team that could properly deal with me. I was SO frustrated…I lost my shit in the hospital. I was so upset that I was being turned away yet again. I cried, I yelled, I made a bit of a scene…and feel bad about it but omg its been over a year of pain, and being tossed around from doctor to doctor so I had pretty much had enough. I went home, ranted on twitter, and cried a ton. I called the hospital and spoke to the main desk to see if there was anything they could recommend, and they referred me to this nursing hotline thing thats local, where nurses can talk to you about your symptoms and stuff, and give you advice on where to go. So I called, spoke to a very sweet, understanding nurse, and after about 45 mins on the phone, she told me the best thing I could do was call around at other hospitals and see if anyone would advise coming in to see them in the ER dept. Well, one of the local hospitals told me that they have qualified staff around to deal with my kind of issue 24/7 and are on call, so I went in today. I wasn’t too optimistic about getting help but figured it was worth a shot and omg I’m so glad I went. I got lucky that it wasn’t busy at all, and literally was seen within one minute by a triage nurse, then registered a few mins after that and not even 15 mins in the waiting room and I was called in to be examined by a doctor. She said that she could definitely get someone to see me, and half an hour after that, I was being prepped for surgery! Woot! I was so impressed by the speed of everything and how concerned they all were. I explained how hellish its been the last year not only dealing with snatch pain, but having to deal with various doctors treating me the way they had, and they couldn’t believe all that I’d been through. They told me from now on to just come straight to the hospital if I have any kind of issue. So I went in, and they froze my lady bits and cut out what needed to be cut out. It hurt quite a bit, but I was so relieved to have it taken care of. They got most of it, drained what was there and cut out what couldn’t be drained but they told me that I do have a risk of it growing back within 6 months to a year since I’m prone to cysts (have had ovarian cysts and breast cysts in the past). But for now, its gone.
I’m glad to be home, bundled in bed…feeling pain but I haz some pain meds to help. I’ll be taking a couple days to just kinda get the healing underway and once I’m feeling a bit better, I’ll be back to see you boys
I want to thank everyone who’s not only listened to my ranting and frustration the last two days, but offered their support and well wishes. It felt good knowing that you guys understood my feelings, and knowing that I wasn’t overreacting about all the drama. So thank you
Anyhoo, I’m off to shower and clean my shiz..was bleeding afterwards so I’m feeling rather gross. TMI I know haha
See you boys soon hopefully! xoxox
