All weekend I was convinced I had Ovarian cysts and that they must be the size of grapefruits. I was thinking of how great it would be to have them removed and lose 5 pounds in the process. I thought that once I had surgery, all my pain in my groin/hip area would go away. I got really sick to the stomach the day of my ultrasound. I think it was a bad combo of stomach flu, anxiety, and reactions to my pain medication. Mario thought for sure I was dying. No joke. He had imagined that I had ovarian cancer and that I had only months to live. Poor guy. He worried all weekend and all day Monday about me.
Early Tuesday morning, the dr called and told me the ultrasound results were completely normal. I did have a small cyst but it was going away just like it should. So that wasn't the reason for my pain. I don't know if I should be happy or sad. I was hoping it would be a quick fix to just remove the cyst and be on my way. So now I may have to go through more testing. I just want a quick fix, but maybe that is not to be.
I did ask for my old physical therapist back. She seems to be a lot more experienced than the one I have now. So starting next week, I will see Stacy again. I continue to go to the chiropractor but not sure it is helping. Sometimes I feel like I am doing better but usually the next couple days I start hurting again. We'll see how the next week goes. Fortunately (at least today and the last few days) I have been able to ride in the car without having pain. So that is good.
Mario just got leave approved for tomorrow and Friday, so maybe we can do something fun before the kids head back to school next week. Hooray! (hooray to both...Mario having leave, and the kids going back to school! It has been a long 2 weeks!!!)

You thought losing 5 lbs would just be that easy, huh?? lol I'm glad you don't have cancer and that you're not dying...at least I hope you're not dying!!! Poor Mario...I understand him worrying. Yay to time off and kids going back to school!!!
I am like Melissa, glad that you didn't have cancer. I hope you start feeling better soon. It's not fun to feel bad.
