Becky, This was only my 2nd surgical report I've read so I just *assumed* since he mentioned slicing & dicing my ovaries...he would of mentioned removing the tubes to. (But that must go without saying.)
This GYN is new to me. He knew my bc history being her2 pos and he was ONLY going to go in and remove the right ovary with the cyst on it. I told him at that point I wanted both removed with my history. So since he was orignally *only* going to remove the ONE ovary...it worried me that he might of only took the two ovaries and not the tubes like we discussed? Especially when my onc and my 2nd opinion onc keep asking me if he removed everything like he said? (How would I know...I can only go by what he said and the surgical report.) I've had alot of things happen to me that shouldn't of since this started...no one would believe it. So it would not surprise me if he only took the ovaries. If it would happen to anyone...it WOULD be me. Thanks a million Becky.
Chelee
