My mum is going in next week for removal of an ovarian cyst, possibly even removal of 1 or both ovaries depending on how bad it looks when they get "in there", so to speak.
Has anyone had this operation and what was your experience? I want to help and support her as much as I can, but neither of us has much idea what it will involve beyond a few days in hospital, and she hasn't been given much information on recovery time, things that will help/not help.
So far the only help I've been able to give was advising her to ask for warm peppermint cordial to help with gas after the op
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
