• Hi first of all just a bit of background. I am a 57 year old waiting for revision from band to rny. I was approved for surgery. On Nov 7, Minutes before being taken back for surgery Doc comes in and says my Blood sugars are too high and we need to postpone surgery till Dec 5 and to work with my endo to get the sugars under better control (i am very uncontrolled which is my reason for wanting the surgery)
  
• meanwhile I begin having really severe pain in my lower right abdomen and in my right back area. I call my Family Doc like a good girl thinking this must be a kidney stone or something. Family Doc has ultrasound done, no stones, no infection no clue.
  
• Baratric Surgeon orders an abdominal ct scan, it shows something on the right ovary
  
• Baratric Surgeon orders a pelvic ultrasound and wants me to see my Gynecologist (haven't been to one in more than 20 years, just use my PCP for that)
  
• Baratric Nurse called and read the ultrasound report and it shows a mass and a cyst and some calcification on the ovary.
  
• The first appt I could get (started calling Monday) to see a Gyno was this coming Tues at 11:00
  
• Bypass surgery is supposed to be Wed.
  
• So I have been on a pre op diet for the better part of six weeks.
  
• I am very discouraged and just don't know what to think.
  
• I feel like I am so close to having the opportunity to get healthy and my body is fighting me every step of the way.
  
• I just wanted to let everyone know and ask for your prayers and any advice.
  
• Thanks for reading all of this
