We are having basically the same surgery, on the same day! I am a nervous wreck, since I don't know exactly what the doctor will find (if it is cancer or not). I am always a basketcase when it comes to any issues with my health because I so rarely have any problems.

See my earliest posts near the bottom of this page (original topic was about endometriomas). Karinc gave me a great explanation about her procedure and recovery.
