Re: Could use some positive thoughts
Hey Kathryn,
Years ago before B.C., I had a transvaginal and pelvic ultrasound (for various reasons). The scan found a cyst on my gallbladder - I had no symptoms, no discomfort, but because it was found, I had to been seen by a specialist. Of course I was a wreck until I saw him - he was very reassuring, told me that 99.9% of the time these cysts are benign, but that we would have to watch it for a few years. If it grew or I had any symptoms, out it would come. So for about 10 years I had to have the pelvic u/s, they would measure the cyst, nothing changed, and then the doc told me after 10 years I did not have to continue with the yearly u/s.
I am praying for you that your "growth" is also benign, as most are.
all the best
caya
