[tri-med] Re: Cysts

Karen,

I was talking about this with my husband,...He thinks that the CT is 
faster, and she was under...and he thinks if she was still intubated 
than that is why they just did the CT...I'm a bit bugged that she 
didn't test the goo she pulled out in the OR room, it wasn't till I 
mentioned getting the results that she got a swab in the Recovery 
room...Ug!

You just expect these docs to do the right thing...Now, she has 
irritated this thing, it is bigger that it was when we went in, My 
husband is bugged that she just didn't drain the whole thing while she 
was there...I think it is now bothering her , just gave her some pain 
meds.   ..I  want to get another opinion anyhow...I don't want this 
thing bothering her, yet I am not at all interested in changing this 
sweet smile I see every day...

Today we were driving, and it looks like she watches me in the rear 
view mirror...When I look back she is smiling...gosh it is just so 
cute...I really need to get it on video...just lights up my day. So any 
thought of a procedure, unless necessary is probably out of the 
question...Maybe the drain "thing" is what we'll end up doing...

I will see what this Doc has to say in a week at the recheck...and see 
what the results on the "drainage" is --- guess there is not too much 
hurry from what I hear...but it will need to be watched.

Thanks again,
ThereseAnn mom to Natalia t-13 5 yrs.
