On August 7, 2023 I had laparoscopic surgery to remove a 8cm ovarian cyst on my left ovary. My left and right fallopian tubes were also removed plus an uterine biopsy was taken. All of this was sent to pathology to test for cancer. The process leading up to it was extremely painful and stressful. You can watch the video here: • My Ovarian Cyst Diagno... .
I hope this video offers you insight on what to expect on your day of surgery. Please like this video if you have found it helpful and do leave a comment or questions you may have. I am happy to help! And thanks for sharing this video to other women who are in the similar situation. Wishing you comfort and peace on your personal ovarian cyst journey.
Stand by for Part 2: Post-Surgery Recovery Experience.

Hello Debbie, i just found your video and I feel better knowing what to expect. I'm scheduled to have a laparascopic diagnosis on Tuesday to determine the sizes of my cysts on both ovaries, after which i will have surgery by month end to remove them. I honestly do not know how I feel about both procedures but I hope for a good outcome and quick recovery. Please let me know if there's any information I'd need before going in for the diagnostic procedure on Tuesday. Thank you

Hi! How are you feeling today? What is the size of your cysts? I have a playlist of my Ovarian Cyst Journey and I hope it offers additional insight and comfort.

I’m about to endure the same surgery! I stumbled upon your part 2 vid, first. I had so many questions and your videos have helped so much! Thank you for sharing your story!! I have a 7cm cyst on my right ovary. Getting my right ovary, cyst and both fallopian tubes removed. I’m nervous! I’ve had 4 surgeries from the age of 3-13, but now that I’m 37 I pray I recover quickly as I did when I was younger. 😅 Do you think 1 week off of work is suffice?

@bydeborahsavage 5 месяцев назад

You have had a lot of surgery experiences! Wow! You will be so happy to have your cyst removed. My pain and discomfort was quite bad and I started feeling better at 3 weeks. But, that’s just me. If you could get a second week off I would recommend it. Do listen to your body as you heal. Sending you positive vibes!

@paulinecornelison1186 13 дней назад

Just had both ovaries and fallopian tubes removed today. Pain is unbeatable due to the gas...Gas X is not working, but doctor said that will go away in a few days. Laying in my back helps though. Looking forward to not being in pain everyday from having cysts. PCOS is the devil!😢

@bydeborahsavage 13 дней назад

I’m so sorry! The first week is the hardest. You will feel so much better soon, I promise! Please take it day by day and get lots of rest. I’m sending you lots of love and healing vibes! You got this!!!

I feel like we experienced the same experience. I had my appendix taking out years before. Plus I had a c section! Ugh my body is tired. I’m still one week one after ovary removal

@bydeborahsavage 9 месяцев назад

Yes, your body will be so tired! It is going through the recovery process and the first week is the worst. Please, be gentle with yourself - you are on the road to recovery. You will definitely start feeling better (more yourself) around 3 to 4 weeks. Take things nice and slow. Sending you lots of love!

I have had exploratory laparoscopic surgery, 3 c-sections, 2 mole removals cut out surgically and gallbladder surgery done laparoscopically as well. Lots of scar tissue! I see surgeon in a few weeks to discuss what he will be doing. Nervous about how they will proceed due to all the existing scar tissue ugh! Right ovary and fallopian tube comes out for sure.

Thank you for sharing this. I am really scared to have surgery. It is coming up at the end of this month and I never had surgery ever. I have an 18.5 cm cyst that needs to be removed.

@bydeborahsavage 6 месяцев назад

I wish I could give you a big hug! You will feel so much better when your cyst is removed. Your body will start healing and you will be so happy to be on the other side of this. xo

Hello debbie, I’m a 24 year old woman of 2. For the last 6 months ive been going throw lots of health scares. Leading me to get lots of testing done. I had a TV/US, in June, m they really couldn’t see my left ovary due to my bowel covering it. So everything looked good to them. On August I had a CT of my pelvic and abdomen for constant pain , but everything looked good only they found a 4.3 x 3.1 cm cyst on my left ovary. They described it as a normal looking cyst. Nothing of significance. But I’m completely afraid. It causes me so much back pain and severe anxiety. I’m going to get another Ultrasound just to make sure it’s a functional cyst. But I’m in complete panic mode 😞 Idk what to do.

@bydeborahsavage 13 дней назад

I’m so sorry to hear this. If you are experiencing pain that is affecting your lifestyle daily then it’s reason enough to be investigating further and to see what course of action is needed for you to feel better.

@bydeborahsavage 13 дней назад

Don’t give up! Find a doctor who will help you come up with a plan and solution that you feel good about.

Please dear is extreme hunger and thirst also one of the sign of a cyst

@bydeborahsavage 3 месяца назад

Hi! I know symptoms can be different for every individual. I don't remember being extremely hungry or thirsty. But the last couple of weeks before my surgery my back started hurting a lot more, I had to go to the bathroom (number 1) more and I was losing my appetite for food. Have you made an appointment to see a doctor yet to check out and diagnose?

@wanguimwangi3707 5 месяцев назад

I jusy stumbled upon this one week after my laparotomy surgery. I dint have a chance to have a laparoscopic surgery since i was in so much pain and dint know what was happening in my body. I was also half awake in the surgery....that was one hectic surgery ....it was my 3rd but this one was more painful than the last 2. So far, so good but i am slowly healing. Lost my left ovary and they did cyst drilling on my right.

@bydeborahsavage 5 месяцев назад

Oh my gosh! You have gone through so much. I am so sorry. Thank you for sharing your experience and I am sending you good healing vibes. Do touch base and let me know how you are recovering.

@ShannonNovak-zl3bv 6 месяцев назад

How are you? Thank you for sharing. Did you receive any nerve block or lidocaine for your incisions? I’m wondering why it was so painful upon waking up. So glad you are over it all! I have a dermoid cyst and still have to get surgery.

@bydeborahsavage 6 месяцев назад

Hi Shannon! Thanks for watching my video. I did not receive a nerve block or lidocaine for my incisions. The intense pain might be from my uterine biopsy that I had at the same time too. Perhaps, I was cramping from the biopsy site? I have had my appendix out before and the pain was similar to that plus the bleeding from the uterine biopsy which was not fun! There was just so much going on with my body. The first week was rough for me and the second was much better. I am 7 months post-op now and I feel amazing! I am so glad to get the cyst out of my body. Best wishes to you!

@ShannonNovak-zl3bv 6 месяцев назад

I am so happy you are over it! That’s amazing. Was it robotic? Just wondering. Thank you.

You’re right, feeling how it began to shrink and eventually disappear within 2 months was so liberating. I followed the steps I mentioned, and within the first 2 weeks the bloating was gone. I simply go'ogled Tilly Strankten's Ovarian Cyst Guide and it's like I hit the feel-good reset button lol.
