Surgery update

So today I was suppose to have a scar fixed from the surgery I had in April (to remove cyst from my ovary), I had seen my ob/gyn about a month ago and told him that the one scar was still VERY sore, swollen and mean looking (it should be paper thin but it's actual about a 1/4 wide, bright red and very tender). He looked at it and said he wanted to fix it so it didn't cause any issues down the road. About a week later I had a large lump appear right beside that scar. And when I say large I'm talking like the size if a tennis ball large. I went to my family doctor and ask if it was a hernia (my mom has been battling on going hernias for about 7 years now since having a reconstructive surgey)...he felt the "lump" and said....I'm betting it is, but at this point lets hold off till we hear about the bypass surgery. If your approved they can fix the hernia at the same time" 

So today I went to see the ob/gyn and the nurse instructed me to get ready and I said hold off opening the trays cause I'm not sure this is actually happening. She looked at me puzzled but said "ok" I lay down and the doctor comes in. He asked how I was....blablabla and I said we may have an issue. I explained how the small bump is now a large lump

He pulls the sheet down and says....and I quote "what the hell????"

Yes my normally reserved doctor was in SHOCK. He felt the lump and said yes it's defentaly a hernia and he wasn't going to open me up to fix the scar cause it will only make it worse. 

So in one way I was excited (no surgery ment I didn't have to deal with having a local freezing, like the dentist uses, to have a 1/4 inch wide X 2" long scar cut from my body) but now I'm concerned about having the hernia repaired. Because of the size, instead of being down a day or two, I'm looking more at a 6-8wks recovery. Good news over all is if I'm approved for the bypass then they will do it all in one shot (while I'm knocked out!!!!) 

So now I just need to wait till the 9th to go to orientation to see if I'm a candidate...fingers crossed!!!

P.S. My ex has his manditory information session tomorrow and we have our first court date on Thursday....cause the holidays aren't stressful enough...wish me luck🙏
