My First Surgery...

6:18 PM

Over the last few months I've been having some issues with my lady parts. I made a quick effort to see a doctor about my problems. I took an std test for everything known to man. I took a pregnancy test as well. Fortunately, all of these things came out negative. So what was causing my problems? 

My doctor scheduled me to get an ultrasound done and they found a polyp inside of me. It's nothing major but it is the reason for my recent issues, or so I hope. So in mid April I will be getting a surgery done to have it removed from my body. It's a minor surgery, thankfully. I will go in and go home the same day and it's scheduled on a day where I won't have to lose too much time at work and I have off work the next day to recover from the procedure. 

Even though this is minor, it's still scary. I will be having surgery for the first time. They'll be cutting inside of my body and sorting through things to cut a piece of whatever is inside of me out of me. I will be under anesthesia which I've never had before. I don't spend much time worrying about this but I know that one April comes and I have my pre-op appointment, the tension will build up and I'll grow to be very nervous. I don't suffer from paranoia or anxiety at all but in situations like that the nervousness is a little overwhelming. I guess it's like that for everyone though.

I'm really hoping that this polyp gets removed and I don't get anymore. I also hope that I never develop endometriosis, cancer or anything horrible like that.

I was thankful to never have needing surgery or breaking any bones or having anything harmful happen to my body that required special care. I'm 24 and for my birthday I discover I have something malicious within me growing in me. That's unfortunate. But I have faith that God, my friends, my family and everyone around me will support me and be there for me in this journey.

I'll be sure to update you all on this closer to the surgery and after the surgery.
Should I name my polyp?
How about... Poochi.
Poochi the Polyp. (づ。◕‿‿◕。)づ
