Reply to "pouch removal planned this week - freaked out"

EP, I agree with Sharon.  I would have a GYN consult before I let anyone remove my overy.  Im assuming it's your only one?  I lost one of my ovaries because I had a 6 cm cyst over a tumor that was engulfing the overy.  I still have my other one.  But doing all this surgery at once sounds like a lot to do and a lot of possible complications.  Have them peel back the cyst.  It should not take very long, maybe an extra hour or so.  And I'd have my GYN do it, not a colon/rectal surgeon do it.  I'm very picky about my body parts and don't like having doctors just take them just because its convient for them.  Ask questions and keep pushimg until you get ones you clearly understand.  Good luck and feel better.
