   Ai-ya!
Sorry I haven't posted for so long!! But, well, I haven't been home for a few days. Where was I? In the hospital! That's right! The pain in my side turned out to be an ovarian cist the size of a basketball. Basicly that means that I had a huge waterballoon in my stomach that was pushing my organs around and partially cutting of the circulation to my legs.
I guess I'll tell the whole story. I went to the doc on Wednesday morning to see what was wrong. He did the whole check up routine, ya know, check ears, throat, all that. Then he had me lay on the table(which hurt), and he poked around my stomach, which was really swollen. I looked like I was pregnant! Anyway, he said that I was really distended(swollen) and tense, and that something was definitely wrong. So he sent me down to x-rays. Those came back, and he said that something was taking up all of the room in my stomach, because there was almost no air in my abdomen anywhere. Sooo, he sent me to get a CT scan to get a beter idea of what it was. When I got there to get the scan, I found out that I had to drink this nasty liquid and wait two hours. I managed to get it down, but after about 15 minutes, I threw it up. They said that it was a common response and not to worry about it. They'd just inject it instead!! >_< They put an IV in my arm, which ended up staying there until Friday morning, and injected the stuff. It made me feel hot all over. Icky feeling!
So then my doctor came and looked at the scan. He sat us down and said that it was a very large ovarian cist, and that it had to come out soon. Like within the next couple of days soon! They scheduled me for surgery like two hours after that. Basicly that means I went in for a check-up and ended up getting surgery!!
Anyway, after that I spent the next few days in the hospital recovering. That freakin thing weighed 25 pounds!! I am officially 25 pounds lighter than I was!! And my stomach looks really weird and sunken. And it has staples in it. The incision runs from a couple of inches above my belly-button to just above my privates. Lots and lots of staples and pain. And pain pills. Very strong pain pills!! Actually, one of my perscriptions is a narcotic. I have to take four different kinds of pills for the time being.
Yeah, so that's how my week went. How is everyone else? Oh! I'm about to submit that fanart I promised. I never did finish it, but at this point, I'm not really capable of much besides sitting and reading. So, I'll just submit what I have done.
Love you all!! ^_^
