Bessie is back!!!! And this time, she brought a friend!! I really thought that she was gone for good. Last January I had an ultrasound and she has gone from 5 cm to 1/2 cm and I had no more symptoms again until this past Thursday. Of course this time around, it happened a lot differently! As I do every Thursday morning, I take the little girl I nanny for to the mall to meet my friend Liza (and sometimes Melissa) and her 2 kiddos to walk, play and eat lunch. The morning started out fine but then I took Claire potty after lunch and all of a sudden, I felt dizzy. I thought at first it was because I was bending over helping her and I came up too quickly. But it kept getting worse as we walked to leave. By the time we got to the car, I felt nauseous and like I was going to pass out and then the pain started. I told Liza and she quickly took my phone and started making phone calls. She even called 911! An ambulance came and took me to Rex. My sister and Ashley both met me there. They sat with me all day while I was hooked up to an IV, had my blood drawn and had a Cat Scan. I was in so much pain especially around my belly button. I really thought it was appendicitis but the Cat Scan showed fluid in my pelvis which signifies a ruptured ovarian cyst and low and behold it also showered 2 more cysts, one on each ovary! The have no idea how many ruptured that day but boy was it painful. I had no warning to this like I have had in the past. Before I had cramping, spotting and nausea and this time around, just pain by my belly button. So I called my regular doctor and I am waiting to see what she wants to do. I am sick of this happening every year or so, go away already!!!!
