Yesterday was the shittiest day in awhile....
SO! I noticed a painful lump on my right labia the night before last. And, of course, knowing me this year, it was probably another f-ing cyst. And it was. I went in, the doc available looked at it. it's called a Bartholin cyst. You can look it up, i strongly suggest NOT looking for pictures. I made Nick look, hehe, he wasn't happy. So, it's sore. It's NOT huge, and NOT infected...so they can't do anything for it except tell me to take warm baths or use warm compresses and hope it goes away. If it DOES get infected-like then I have to go back and they'll do more. like....drainage or surgery. great.
After the above female drama, I came home really upset. I'm so sick of this shit with my body. I even asked the doc if there was a reason for it and she says that they're all coincidental. So I came home and was crying and eventually called my mommy and told her about it. She called earlier this week because I don't talk to her enough. So I told her about everything and she told me about her crappy day - she lost the car, because she parked it in a non-usual space and had to look for it for 45 min in a cab because it was freezing. So, fine, I'm upset but more pissed. I'll deal. lalalala, then I missed a call. I assumed it was Mom again and let it go because I didn't want to talk about it again. But it wasn't Mom. It was Dr. Florack with my MRI results. They did find something. There is definitely a cyst and it looks like the most likely option is that I somehow tore the cartilage in my knee. SO I get to have surgery soon. and by soon, I mean, SOON. Like, before January otherwise my deductible will reset and I'll have to pay for at least $1,500 out of pocket. which isn't bad for surgery, but if I get it done now, i pay nothing. I want to pay nothing. So I have less than 3 weeks to get this done. ::sigh:: I was relatively prepared for having to get surgery but on top of everything I was pretty much wrecked last night. So I called Abby and she came over and hung out with us for awhile. It was nice.
I got about 1-2 hrs of sleep last night. no caffeine or anything. I wasn't even dwelling too much, but I couldn't sleep. I couldn't get comfortable and before I knew it my alarm was going off. So I'm at work. Luckily it's a shorter day. Nick and I will be hitting a few littler stroes for Xmas shopping and Abby and I might go to Appleton. However, that will depend on how I feel. Most positions are fairly uncomfortable right now. Except lying down, with my leg up. or standing...kinda. w00t
