Surgery was this morninng. Was canceled half way though.

I was scheduled for surgery this morning and everything seemed to going great. Other than one day early in my 2 week liquid diet, I was perfect. All of my pre-addmission testing came back great. When I work up from the surgery though, my doctor told me they had to abort the surgery because when they went in they found a mass on my ovary. With all the drugs in my system all I could say was ok. Seems so stupid now, but I asked no questions. Now 12 hours later and no more drugs in my system I have a ton, but they sent me home.

On one hand I am so dissappointed my weight loss journey was put on hold but on the other hand I am extremely thankful that this was caught since I had not one system. Another twist of good luck is my mom is a maternity nurse so she is pulling some strings to get me seen ASAP to see what the mass is. Hopefully it is just a cyst and I can get it fixed and re-schedule my surgery.

Bummer on the surgery but I am glad they noticed this now rather than later. Best of luck and hope it is nothing. ????

I am so sorry to hear that. Its disappointing but glad they caught it early. Hopefully its nothing and you can re-schedule your surgery. My surgery is scheduled the 18th, I have an appt tomorrow to see the surgeons. I hope all goes well. I have heard stories where mid-way through surgery they notice something and have to abort surgery. Good Luck and keep us posted.

Hope you will be okay. Somethings happen for a reason.

Maybe I'm not as educated as I thought I was, but how in the world did they go near your ovary when conducting a vsg surgery?

[Miss_Sleeve_Bound 22]

I am so sorry about that Kristin! But thank God they spotted it. I pray everything is okay and it's just a cyst. I have one on my left ovary thats just hanging out not causing any problems but I get it checked as often as I get my pap checks done.

Your journey hasnt ended, just a meer delay for a very good reason. Stay positive and dont worry too much.

I'd like to know that myself. But in this case its a good thing they did

Sorry your surgery was cancelled, but glad they found the mass and now you can be treated. Hopefully there's still a chance of wls in your future. Best of luck!

I am sorry to hear your surgery was postponed and that you are disappointed. But, I have to believe your surgeon only had your health and safety in mind when he made the decision. It is a blessing that the mass was found. I hope and pray that it is something that can be treated easily and safely. I truly believe everything happens for a reason. Sending hugs and prayers.

That is so scary! I hope it turns out to be nothing serious and they can get you rescheduled for surgery soon!

I was diagnosed with uterine cancer about 2 months before I was supposed to have the sleeve. Not quite as dramatic as finding it during surgery though! Just wanted to say I'm so sorry to hear that, but hopefully your doctors will take excellent care if you and this is just a speed bump for you. A hysterectomy cured my cancer, and I am rescheduled for Dec 14. Im not going to lie, though... My biggest fear is waking up and finding out they aborted surgery because they found something else. Xx praying for you.
