Carolyn,
It is hard for a guy to talk about it....they can't understand! It is
wonderful to hear that he is a great guy...though....they are very hard to
find!!
I hope that you have success with the ovary removal...my prayers and
thoughts are with you!
I had my left ovary taking out in hopes that it would help some...and it
hasn't much. But I have found a wonderful pain dr that listens and
understands! Which is rare, I think. I am sorry to hear that you had a hyst
though!! but I know that it was for a good reason!
Lots of Edy's helps tooo :)
Hugs and Love
Wanda
