Well, I had a major incision and it might be different. I just remember cringing at every pothole and being incredibly happy to reach my apartment.
In fact, I distinctly remember my ever-clueless sister feeling a bit guilty leaving me alone in the state I was in and (instead of her staying a few more days) suggesting I go home with her. To Boston. From Brooklyn.
Aside from the craxyness of 6 hours in a car, don't underestimate wanting to be in your own home.
To answer Kristin's question, I was
having general period wonkiness, which my first doctor said was all in my head (and actually I think was caused by the six fibroids they found during my surgery), but then started to be woken up pretty regularly with mid-cycle pain (since mine was an endometrial cyst it would have cyclical growth bursts). And I mean curling up on the bathroom tile sort of pain.

Especially with my sister.
Didn't need to be said twice. Or, come to think of it, maybe it did.
Okay, I'm creepy and weird, and I'm only saying this because megan is hale and hearty, and because Erin seems fine....
I've never known anyone with a teratoma before! Neat-o!!!
Also, "Cyster" made me laugh and laugh and laugh!

Me neither. I think Erin is a bit of a weirdness magnet though. She's a strange attractor. Little vortices of chaos whirl in her wake.
Erin gets one because she is just that cool.

There is no denying: (a) Erin's coolness; (b) Erin's sexiness; (c) Erin's ability to hop up and down lightly on a bed while holding a martini glass in one hand and a cigarette in the other and organize the next day's outing.
