- Ultrasound discovered a solid mass {which we now now is a cyst} that was measuring 4x4x5 cm. About the size of a large plum. Let the fun begin!
Fall 2013- Summer 2015
- Lots of ultrasounds, bloodwork, and colposcopy clinic!
August 11th 2015
- Follow up and at that point basically got the go ahead that the mass wasn't growing, all my CA125 {cancer markers} blood work kept coming back negative.
