My ultrasound was yesterday. We left feeling confident. The tech said that she thinks she caught my right ovary on camera; she just needs the radiologist to confirm. My Dr should have the results Tuesday or Wednesday.
Dr. S called me this morning. The results are in. I have (what they think is) a dermoid cyst either in front of, or ON my right ovary and this is the reason why no doctor has ever seen it. The next step is to have an MRI, which is scheduled for August 15th. The MRI will confirm what type of cyst it is. Dr. S said that dermoid cyst are benign, and that I will need to have surgery to remove it since they can’t “go away” on its own, and since it’s pretty big.
I’m scared. I’m heartbroken too. Dr. S said that this cycle is out of the question now. I can still take the Provera to shed all the lining I still have. But I cannot take the Clomid. I’ve never spent the night in the hospital before. I mean, I have for other people, but never for myself. I’ve heard different stories though. The surgery could be a simple outpatient procedure, or I might have to spend the night there. I guess we’ll learn more about this as we go.
I’m trying to remember… But I think an ex-coworkers daughter had a dermoid cyst. And once she had it removed, she and her husband had a baby… NATURALLY! Let’s hope this is the case for us too!
So we’re OUT. Literally. L
