Surgery. Friday.

So I've been getting cysts for years and I'm just tired off all the pain/and fustration. This last cyst that I currently have was about 6cm but has ruptured. I've been in pain/and puking for a week so my doctor and I decided to do a laproscopic surgery on Friday the 5th. She is going in to look and go from there. We dont know how big the cyst is right now since it ruptured but if any left, she will remove it. I am also going to request a removal of my right ovary. That has been the side that gets functional and complexed cysts for years.

My question is.....how many cuts will there be ? If she removes the ovary too? Also how long to recover? I've had csections and three laproscopics as well as an appendectomy. Just dont remember......lol

Any thoughts/experiences would be great. THanks!

I haven't had laporascopies but I believe it is 3 tiny incisions.  Good luck tomorrow!
