I don't know about any one else but I'm the type of person that doesn't like to go to the doctor unless I'm loosing a limb or I can't walk. Something along those extreme lines, but today was different. I had some pain in my lower left abdomen for a day or so that I didn't think was all that normal so I took the plunge and called up a nurse. I just wanted to see if they thought I needed to see someone right away or if it could wait for a few days until I could make an appointment. Much to my surprise, the lady said that I should probably go to the ER and have them look at me.
A bit scary for someone to say go to the ER but I did and of course put up with the hours and hours and hours of waiting in the waiting room and missed work because of it. Of those that read this and also work with me, I will say that I think it was worth finding out the issue to miss work but you can also know I didn't want to miss work...I just was a bit more concerned about myself.
Never fear though, I'm going to be fine. There is just some inflammation that can be taken down easily enough with Ibuprofen. I did however get to experience my first ultra sound and found out I have a cyst on my right ovary. Cysts are normal to get and they said it wasn't anything to be concerned about.
So my body is on a week probation and if it doesn't get better in that time frame then I should probably see a gynecologist Woo?
All I can say is thank God it wasn't something worse and lets hope and pray it gets better and nothing else is wrong with me. I can't afford to spend money fixing myself.
