Ok so on May 2nd I wil have to have a surgery on my mesenteric cyst that is bigger than a grapefruit and attached to my colon. I might be in the hospital overnight (hopefully) up to 1 week : this is depending how well of course i do with the surgery, as well as how bad the cyst is attached or grown into my colon and if they have to remove some of it (the colon) Supposed to be off work 4-6 weeks ( ya right lol) then after that i have to have my 1 centimeter kidney stone blasted...(that sounds fun NOT) lol I am not feeling too bad the good drugs i have been on forever are still doing there job!YEE HAAW!!! just thought i would let you all know i am still in the land of the living!!! love you all!!! SORRY I HAVEN'T BEEN ON IN SO LONG TO SUPPORT ALL OF YOU BUT I DO THINK OF YOU ALL OFTEN! MUAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So so so glad you posted! Think of you so often and don't want to bother you. Really hoping for the quick in and out, but also know the dr knows best. Will keep the prayers going from now until you're given the all clear. By the way, how much does a cyst the size of a grapefruit weigh? Certainly you'll see your weight go down (silver lining?)! Take care, my friend! Cleo

I'm so happy that you are going to finally be able to get this taken care of. You are in my prayers girl. And about the lithotripsy(blasting) for the kidney stones....dont' worry, it's nothing. You'll be fine. A much better option than cutting you open to take them out. Take care of you! Love ya! Pam
