Default Surgery on Monday

Well, I have a D&C scheduled for Monday 7:30 a.m. Have to be at the hospital at 4:30 a.m. I am a little out of my comfort zone. Had plenty of ortho type surgeries but none medical or gyn-related.

Looks like a uterine fibroid which is simple enough. There is a mass in the right ovary and after research it's more than likely a cyst as well so I'll not worry unnecessarily.

My biggest fear is that I'll not be able to take my meds for my PN and will be in quite a bit of pain. I can't take anything past midnight. I did let the doc's office know and was told I can take my gabapentin and darvocet around 2 a.m. if needed with very little water of course.

I guess thinking about the PN pain is keeping me from worrying too much about the surgery. That's a good thing, right?
