Christmas of 2005, I became violently ill with what I thought was something I ate that didn't agree with me. My mom thought it was something else, but I told her it couldn't be. More than a month later, I started feeling pain in my right side. I was taken first to urgent care and they sent me to the ER (they were concerned that I could have appendicitis) where I was diagnosed with an ovarian teratoma. After meeting with my gynocologist the next day, she referred me to a gynocological surgeon since the tumor had to come out. Almost two months after the diagnosis, I underwent surgery to have the tumor removed. It turned out they had to remove an entire ovary. Fortunately, it was benign. I still have the other one and I am scared that I will lose that one too.
It took me a few weeks to fully recover from the surgery. I also missed about two and half weeks of class as a result.
