ovary removed...what to expect now?

I had my left ovary and tube removed in 2005 and I don't think I ever went back to the way I was before the surgery. I do get my period every month, though.

I know that I don't post as much as I used to, but I have been checking this forum at least a couple of times a week lately. I hate to hear when someone has some not-so-good news to share, and I pray for many of you daily. I know that I haven't had to deal with as much as many have in this group, but dealing with OVCA has still been a difficult for me, and I ...
