Aww, you're too sweet dear!

Packing came out (ugly mess!)

aaaaaaaaaaaaand....

More packing went in. :eek:

They want it to 'naturally heal' from the inside out. So now I have to go back every day for a week. :p

2.5 hours to see the doctor in the ER today. Thankfully they're sending me to the same place for the rest of the week where I get my IVSM done for my MS. I know all the nurses down there and they rock! AND they're FAST. But 8:45am every day for a week. :(

Hey laura~ I do remember that too~ they want it to heal from the inside out, so it closes nicely. Glad your'e doing better.

Hey Cherokee~ was your cyst a Pilonidal Cyst? My DS had one on his tailbone and had to have surgery. It was a mess and so painful, as he also had a fistula w/it. He's had several cysts.

Think he gets them due to being immunosuppressant.

take care all!

Yep, DM it sure was. I remember not being able to sit or sleep comfortable for months while it was healing. LOL

I dunno what type of cyst mine is/was, but the nurse that unpacked/repacked yesterday said she could not see anymore infection. Same today, unpacked, repacked, no further signs of infection.

They said I may not have to go for the entire week, because it's healing so well/quickly and lack of infection. Woohoo! :)

Aw Laura, that's wonderful news! :yahoo:

Today, I didn't have to go to the hospital!

Yesterday, they just gave me a bunch of bandages, and said, "Remove the packing yourself Friday, put a new bandage on, and you should be good unless you notice infection come back".

Yay! :)
