I just had the same surgery in October and was frightened beyond words. They thought I had ovarian cancer but thankfully it all turned out so well. The surgery was quick (about an hour and 15 minutes) and the mass ended up being a large mature teratoma which is benign. They released me from the hospital that night. The only problem I had was from the carbon dioxide they pump into your abdomen. It’s very uncomfortable for about 5 days. I’m 64 years old and recovered while also recovering from the effects of hurricane Ian. You’ll do fine. It’s such a common surgery. Good luck to you. Please keep us posted on your progress. I’ll be praying for you.

@eigna32, did you have your surgery? How are you?
