BARTHOLINCYST: Post-Marsupialization for Bartholin Cyst - Missing Inner Labia

10 days ago I had a marsupialization for a bartholin cyst about the size of a large walnut. Looking at the site it appears to me that my vagina now has a "cleft palate". There is a raw area (I assume thats where the stiches are holding open the cyst wall)where I used to have an inner labia. I cry everytime I think about how it is just gone. Is it common to have labia just removed like this? Am I correct in assuming that even when the opening does heal back into a smaller opening that I will still not have a labia? All the postings say "in time" the opening will shrink, but how long is "in time"? Are we talking weeks or much longer than that? I feel so disfigured I don't know how, even when it is healed, how I will be able to be sexual again.
