Yesterday I had a meeting with my new gyno specialist, as my old one had decided she had done all she could. The result was both good news and bad. The good news being that she was willing to help me. The bad news is that I get to have surgery again. It has been scheduled for September 15. I've also been put on an experimental medication that is commonly used in Europe for endometriosis (they're not sure I have that) that is supposed to reduce the nerve pain and reduce the growths. If it works well enough, the surgery could perhaps be cancelled, but so far everyone seems to think it's a good idea to get in there and see what's going on. It's hard to properly see what there is in there with just diagnostic imaging.
The surgery date unfortunately means that I can't go to school in the fall like I had planned, so that was hard to swallow.
While I was digesting all of that, I went to grab something to eat and wouldn't you know it, someone rear ended me. Smashed right into the back of my car. So I'm quite sore today, especially where the seat belt crushed my pelvis where the cysts are.
Whew! What a day. When it rains, it pours, as a good friend says.
