Well

I went to the Surgeon today, who promptly proceeded to tell me that he’d have to slice me open to drain the cyst right there on the spot. I wasn’t expecting that. The Lidocaine (local anesthetic) burned like hell going in and it took abt 20 minutes for him to be done. No stiches, just some packing and hell of a lot of gauze. He said good news is… I can go on my trip, bad news… warm baths 4 times a day and I gotta wear padding because I am gonna keep draining. I know I should be glad that I can still go but this thing has me worried and the whole hot bath to keep it oozing isn’t exactly what I want on a vacation to Cali.

However as the day went on I was feeling better, and feeling better about my trip. Late last evening I wanted to go to the bathroom and get a shower so we needed to remove the guaze and padding which went well until we pulled the last piece of the gauze which was stuck to the packing and pulled half of it out. It hurt and bled like crazy i bled thru a gauze set up and finally it stopped. The worst part is I have to pull the rest out tomorrow This really sucks and I am not happy. I am gonna try to go to work tomorrow, I hope i make it okay…

I must also say I’ve passed my “who gives a crap about too much information in my blog” stage so you’re getting it full brunt, my feelings…. this suck and the world must suffer too lol
