Yesterday was insaaaaanely busy for me spood friends, I apologize for not getting more of my newly paired mamas posted! We were out of the house by 9:30am, stopped briefly home to get my spider delivery from Georgia Jumper Dude (thank you, I love you guys 😭🩶) and then were back in the car and on the go until about 8:25pm last night.
I have some extremely great news, though! I know a lot of you are new, but some of you have been with me since before my surgery last November. It was an extremely disheartening surgery because we were told that nothing was found other than a 2 inch cyst removed from my right o***y, but it turns out the surgeon last year did not fully explore the way he was supposed to and an endometrial lesion had been sitting in my uterus since last October increasing the pain I already go through on a daily basis, it was documented on one ultrasound before surgery and both my ER visits this year in April and August.
I met with a new doctor and care team yesterday who has reviewed my previous surgery, all of my ultrasounds, blood work, and ER visits from the last year and a half and found MORE than enough reason (without evening reviewing any of my appointments/scans from our 2 years in TN and from me growing up in FL) to move forward with a complete hysterectomy including the removal of both ovaries (which are the source of my constant pain) and get me started on hormone replacement therapy.
I am both anxious as can be and overjoyed at the same time. I have been fighting for 15 years to get help with my reproductive health and for the very first time I feel seen/heard/validated.
Its tentatively looking like December will be surgery, so things likely will change some here in the Queso household come that time. I'll be looking at a minimum of 6 weeks recovery time if everything goes *exactly* the way its supposed to. But we can figure that out together when the time comes.
If you made it this far, THANK YOU! You guys are my people and I appreciate yall more than I could ever put into words. 🩶
