Living out loud in the Carolinas

Ice Chips!!!

Jon and I just returned home from the hospital where we’ve been since 7 am this morning. I woke up about 6 with a sharp pain. Thinking it was upset stomach I went to the bathroom. Ike and Kea followed me and pooped in the bathroom. The smell of it made me throw up, which I did for the next hour and a half. I never went to the bathroom though, I couldn’t and the pain didn’t go away. Finally, after about an hour I had Jon take me to the hospital. I’d never felt anything like this before.

I had a catheter and an ultrasound and turns out I had a cyst on my ovary the size of a cantaloupe! That’s a huge fruit people! So they admit me for emergency surgery. Jon was so good through everything. They put me on morphine and demerol, but it didn’t help much. Finally at about 5 pm they put me under and did laproscopic surgery. While in surgery they found my Fallopian tube was twisted causing a huge blood bubble. So they removed the cyst and my tube. Had they not discovered this it could have been disastrous.

I’m hurting pretty badly and will be out of work for a little while. Thankfully, I have a wonderful family and fabulous friends for support!
