Dana’s story

February 29, 2012

I have just found out about my cyst today, and the doctor gave me antibiotics to take for the next 5 days. I’m supposed to see him on Friday for a check up to see if the swellings gone down, and schedule me for surgery to extract the whole thing. By doing that it should stop it from coming back ever, but I am really scared by reading all the stories. I hope everything goes alright, I’m just 16 years old and I will do my best to treat the zone as carefully as possible to avoid another infection. Wish me the best! I’ll definitely post in a few months after the operation to tell you all how it went. Dana
