Hi D.N. ,
Thanks for your response. It helps to hear from someone who has been
through the same experience. I'm at complete and total frustration! I
thought having a hysterectomy would cure my problems only to find out
that it hasn't.
My doctor told me that he's not sure what type of cysts I have and that
he'll be following them up with another sonogram in a few weeks. He's
told me that if he has to operate (again) that I may lose the ovary. So,
in the meantime, I guess I wait.... like a good little patient!
Take care,
KK
