We all want to look fit, so when we choose to go on a diet, we want it to surely have a positive effect. But take this, for instance, you begin a diet and you suddenly start to gain weight. However, your arms and legs are getting thinner. The only thing getting bigger is your midsection. It truly is a bizarre thing to experience, and more often than not it can lead to some very serious health complications.
Instinctively, you'd wonder what is happening. You'd start asking questions. You believe this cannot be as a result of your diet, right? Of course, your new diet plan cannot cause this. You're doing everything right, so why is the part of your body you probably want to lose the most weight actually gaining weight and not losing it?
Unfortunately, this was the reality of a woman in Mexico. An unnamed 24-year-old woman suddenly looked pregnant in less than a year, but something was wrong: she wasn't pregnant. Sometimes women can fall pregnant and not even realize it, but after countless tests and not feeling pregnant, it raises the question of what else could it be?
She did the right thing anybody else would do; she went to the doctor and the scans immediately showed that she had an ovarian cyst! It was crazy because her midsection had grown so much that she now looked like a heavily pregnant woman! Typically cysts are often thought of to be quite small and most of the time they are and remain relatively small. However in extreme cases, they can often grow to be enormous in size, and this is exactly what ended up happening in this case.
The cyst was a staggering 70 pounds! Carrying around an extra 70 pounds of weight is unimaginable when it's something that's a part of your body, making you unable to simply stop carrying the weight. It also comes as a shock to the system when that much weight isn't gradually acquired. Sure, people can gain weight pretty fast, but 70 pounds in less than a year for the average person is quite extreme.
Aside from its ridiculously large size, the cyst was making it very hard for her to breathe, walk and eat. She could not do something she naturally does, like take a stroll down the street, or fix herself something to eat.
The cyst was also doing something drastic inside of her. It had begun crushing her insides. Her doctor, Dr. Erik Hanson Viana removed the cyst, fortunately. It took a total of five hours for this to be completed.
The cyst had grown so bad that it took up almost 95% of her abdomen. The question everyone is asking is why didn't she go to the hospital sooner? Why did she have to wait for so long?
Fortunately for her, two days after the operation, she was able to walk out of the hospital on her own. It surely must have been a life-changing experience for her.
Six months later, it is safe to say that she is completely healed, and also safe to say that she's learned her lesson about what happens if you wait too long to receive medical attention regarding something abnormal about your body.
WebMD, a medical website reports that ovarian cysts are harmless, and millions of women will have ovarian cysts without even knowing about it at all. However, most times this cyst will go away on its own without medical intervention.
It still doesn't mean that some other women wouldn't have to go to the doctor for theirs.
If by chance you experience pain during regular activity, a heaviness in your abdomen, or a pain in your pelvic area during bowel movements, or even a dull ache in your pelvic area, it is important that you see a doctor as soon as possible. You wouldn't want to wait until you have a 70-pound cyst inside of you! Catching these things while they're still minor and small in size can make a huge difference.
Please, share this video to raise awareness on ovarian cyst as most women are still oblivious of this condition. Share with your friends and family, and even colleagues.
