Tilda

Apparently I've had an uninvited guest hanging out on my right ovary from some unknown amount of time. I discovered this nuisance after weeks of pain, a trip to the emergency department, and finally a transvaginal ultrasound. Sexy right?

Introducing my very unwelcome guest: Tilda the ovarian mass. (Brad made me name it.)

don't be confused, this is NOT a pregnancy announcement

You see that big dark thing in the middle that kinda looks like an eggplant? Yeah, that's Tilda. My doctor was quite surprised when he discovered this huge mass (it is bigger than my uterus). His exact words: "that doesn't belong there." At least I'm not crazy and I've been in major pain for a reason.

Luckily there are plans to remove Tilda on Tuesday and maybe at that point we'll know exactly what Tilda is made up of (don't worry, it shouldn't be cancerous). The surgery is outpatient so I won't have to spend anytime in the hospital and the plans are to go through my belly button. I really hope they let Brad participate in the surgery (or at least observe it) but they might not let him. I'm actually really excited to not be in pain anymore. It's gonna be awesome!
