Hey guys, just figure I'd update you on my surgery and what not. I had it yesterday and everything went well. I arrived at the hospital at 11:45am for check in, and my doctor came to get me at around 1pm I think. She mentioned something about the OR running behind schedule. Oh, and I have to say, getting IV needles in your hand HURT LIKE HELL. I've never been bothered by needles in my arm before, but the one in my hand almost made me cry. Then my nurse gave me two shots of Versed and I was messed up. My family came in one at a time to see me before I went off to the OR but I don't remember anything that they said because I was sleepy from the Versed. I don't remember being taken into the OR room either. They last thing I actually remember was struggling to get from the gurney bed thing to the operating table. After that, I woke up in the resting area I guess and I was soooo drugged up. My doctor and some nurses were talking to me but I don't remember what they said. All I remember was that they kept telling me not to go back to sleep. After they took the oxygen mask off, a nurse explained a few things to me and gave me some medicine for pain. I went to sleep after that. When I woke up again my parents were coming to get me to take me home. Luckily for me, I had a laparoscopy which is three small incisions and from there they removed the cyst and my left ovary from those incisions. So I went home at about 7:30pm, ate dinner, went to sleep, woke up for vicodin, then went back to bed. So here I am now, recovering. Since I had the laparoscopy, my recovery time was shortened to 2-4 weeks. My boyfriend was happy about that because he didn't want to wait 6 weeks to see me again haha So yeah, I'm in pain right now but I'm going to take some vicodin and go to sleep.

Have a nice day guys!
