good news december 10th surgery went well The Doctor got the whole cyst out lab said no cancer
Some of the side effects are standard, so to speak, with anesthesia and with any surgery.
Some of them may have to do with the location of the cyst or lesion.
You can contact the anesthesiologist to speak about those side effects as well your doctor should make full disclosure. Speak to someone - his nurse, PA or his surgical set up person to get more information. You have every right to prepare yourself.
If your surgeon is experienced, the worst can be avoided most times. They have to list the worst case scenarios for full disclosure. In a way, I wish they would be a bit more practical and instead or also do things like prepare that you cannot bend over for x weeks and put things you need above waist level and bring lip balm to the hospital. Those were the things I needed to know more.
