"When you hear hoofbeats behind you, you don't expect to see a zebra". The color for rare diseases is zebra. If zebra can be a color. I guess most doctors do not look past the horses to see the lone zebra. The zebra with the rare disease.

Surgery Day!

Gary, Jennifer, (Izzy), and Lauren all came to the hospital this morning.  We had to leave at 4:30 am. They took me to surgery at 7:30am.  Got out of surgery at 10:00 and in my room at noon.  I'm very sore, not really at the incision site but more where the cysts were drained.  I wasn't expecting that.  I'm not sure why, he did have to cut them open and drain them.  So, I'm having trouble getting comfortable.  Pain level 10+

My cysts were in pelvic area so he had to do mine through the front. I didn't have to have my sacrum removed.

More, later :)
