Hello everybody--I'm new here and I'm pretty upset so please forgive me if I ramble or leave something out. On Sept. 14 I had surgery to remove a dermoid tumor which in less than 4 months grew from 7cm to "larger than a grapefruit" (and you would think that having something that size removed from your gut would make you even a little thinner!!but I guess it doesn't work that way!) I also asked the doc to cut the other tube while he was in there--I had an ectopic pregnancy a few years back in which I lost one tube and maybe an ovary. The doc said the other tube was filled with scar tissue and "scraped it out". He told me to be very carefull if I get preg. again because its likely to be ectopic. So anyway I figured=="while youre in there". So before the surgery I had a ultrasound and it states 'no normal right ovary is seen'. Does this mean I dont have one or I do and its not normal? I was back in the hosp. on Sept. 22 the incision opened (glue--6" bikini cut) and I had a fever. Spent four more days in the hosp. getting totally pumped upped with heavy duty antibiotics and pain killers until my fever came down. I Had a cat scan to check for infection and there was none other than the incision. OK heres the rough part----after weeks of my aunts nagging I finally went and picked up all of my reports and results...........and now Im FREAKING!!!!!!!! I had noooooo idea what to expect but I know it wasnt this.I will just list the exam reportu guys can help me out if any of this sounds familiar or you know anything about any of this at all...Ive done research on the internet but every thing is sssooo vague. So here goes--Im sorry its so long--Ill try to condense it. Cat scan--non-contrast--I'm allergic so only oral contrast. OK here goes--pelvic hematoma, 1cm calcificationin the left adnexa, course calcification in the left pelvis,5mm pulmonary nodule posterir lung base, 3.5mm pulmonary nodule on the right lateral costophrenic sulcus at approximately the same level, 6mm plm. nod.--left lateral lung base, Very prominent patchy ground glass changes of both lung bases,, very course markings can be seen posterior to the heart,complete scanning of the chest is indicatedfor initial further assessment,numerous tiny calculi--both renal sinuses, punctate calcifications in the inferior aspect of the thecal sac,scattered indeterminate mesenteric and retroperitoneal lymph nodes, reexamination with iv contrast should be consired with appropriate steroid prep if required. If anybody knows about any of this please let me know. Should any of these Dr. have given me a heads up on this? Also does anybody know if a pregnancy test is routine before surgery?Had my normal period Sept. 15==Just spotted Oct.15 and Nov. 15====Nothing. I'm sooo worried == If I am pregnant it happened before surgery and i was popping percs, dilaudid and codeine almost by the mouthfull . I have a Dr. appointment in 3 weeksand its driving me nuts not knowing at all what to expect. So if anybody out there can help me out I would rrrreeeaaalllyyy appreciate it

Thanks--H
