Finally get answers Monday about the pelvic mass! (Surgery)

Hello all,

I’m having surgery Monday. As some of you who have been following me on this crazy journey know, I’ve had a health scare that never got resolved.

First there was the Urologist back in November who did a cystoscope and found my bladder to be normal on the inside. The biopsy came back benign of tissue she took. But she said the bladder mass was on the outside of my bladder.

I then saw my Obgyn Who refused to operate because it was above his skill level. Which I’m grateful for his honesty. He referred me to a Urogynecologist whom couldn’t do anything so she then referred me to a Oncology Gynecologist.

The Oncology Gynecologist then sent me for an MRI that shows the mass grew a little bit.

So she decided I needed surgery and she would remove it because she’s good with more complex surgeries.

So now Monday is the big reveal! I go in for surgery now having concrete answers. This lesion has troubled different doctors. I pray it’s nothing but benign.

All I do know is it’s causing problems physically and psychological as I’ve had anxiety over it!

I ask for thoughts on Monday and well wishes!

I of course will let you all know what it is she sees.

Thank you,

Lisa

Best wishes for a successful procedure and a good prognosis.

Sending good thoughts your way, Lisa. *Hugs*

Best Wishes Lisa!

Fingers crossed and good karma being sent your way!

Sending you best wishes and hugs. Looking forward to hearing that the tumor is benign.

I wondered what happened about this, Lisa. Thanks for the update. Sending lots of healing and good wishes your way. Yes, hoping it is benign and they can remove all of it.

Sending you best wishes and lots of strength and courage! (hugs).

Sending good wishes, prayers, positive vibes...whatever helps. Hoping for a great outcome.

Since the biopsy came back benign then it is benign.

Rest assured.

Good luck with your surgery and wish you a speedy recovery from the op.

Hey - today is Monday.

Thinking about you!

Hope all goes smoothly.

Sending you best wishes, L.

What a long road this has been for you.

Virtual hugs and well wishes. Hope everything went well and that you are doing OK.

My surgery was a disappointment! I’ll get into it more later just not feeling well. Was admitted to the hospital!

I hope everything turns out OK.

Ok! Don't worry about updates. Sending healing wishes!! Hope you are ok and can sleep soon.

Thank you all for words of support. I’m in the hospital room typing out my frustrations, anger and disappointment!

The surgeon couldn’t remove the tumor as it was in a spot she couldn’t reach! I’m back to square one with going back to Urologist and I’ve been in tears.

In recovery I had a fever and tachycardia so I had to be admitted to the hospital.

All the surgeon did was remove some endometriosis and a cyst on my right ovary.

She said the mass outside my bladder needs to be removed and biopsy as it looks suspicious but there’s no more she can do for me.

I have a follow up appointment in two weeks with her! I’m furious as to why she couldn’t figure this out before!

I had an MRI before this procedure!

I’m feeling at a loss!

Oh no, that is so frustrating :(

Now I have to see an Oncologist Urologist.
