Saanvi Iyer, a 28-year-old software engineer,...
Saanvi Iyer, a 28-year-old software engineer, had been experiencing intermittent, dull abdominal pain for nearly a year. Initially dismissing it as stress or poor diet, the discomfort became more persistent and localized to her lower right abdomen. A sharp episode sent her to the ER, where a CT scan revealed a large mesenteric cyst. Her general surgeon, Dr. Mehta, explained that while often benign, the cyst's size and her symptoms warranted surgical removal to prevent complications like torsion, rupture, or bowel obstruction. Saanvi was terrified; surgery felt like a major disruption to her busy life and upcoming projects. The laparoscopic excision went smoothly, and she was discharged after two days. Recovery involved a few weeks of mild soreness and a gradual return to normal diet and activity. Post-surgery, the chronic pain was completely gone. Emotionally, she moved from anxiety and frustration over the unexplained pain to immense relief and gratitude. The experience gave her a new appreciation for listening to her body.
