This morning I had my lump, Larry Lipoma, removed at St Paul’s hospital. Good riddance. I’ll be so happy to have it gone and now, hopefully, on to recovery. This has been a rough few months. After the MRI, there was some leg/groin pain, meds, a 10-day headache, tinnitus, meeting with an surgical oncologist, worry/anxiety, endless waiting. But as of 9 am, it is gone.
So grateful to Deed, who came up Wednesday laden with baking, food, tulips and everything good to help drive and nurse me for a day or two. April in Saskatchewan being what it is, she came a day early because of a big snow storm in Yorkton (thankfully not here) Wednesday.
So this morning was at Admitting at 6:30 am and was in surgery at 8:00 am. Was out just after 9:00 am and discharged just after 11:00.
A day of rest and meds and being tended to and onward to better days tomorrow. I’m so grateful to have had this thing removed. It was not an insignificant “mass” but seems to be of low concern. Will have more information about it in 2-4 weeks.
I am relieved.
