4 Weeks, 28 days ago today, my life changed very quickly. I became very ill 10/20-21/2012 & was rushed to the er. I was then informed that I had a very large tumor that needed to be removed right away. I was rushed to the OR where they found not 1 BUT 2 very large tumors. The one on the left ovary was 24 centimeters and had wrapped itself around the ovary & tubes. The right one was twice the size. They had to remove the entire left ovary and tubes but were able to save the right ovary. They were removed in a 2 hour operation. I'm doing well, 22 pounds lighter, limited mobility, some pain but I'm alive. I am experiencing lots of side effects including, sleeplessness, fatigue, anxiety, hot flashes & night sweats.
