After speaking with the surgeon and discovering that I would have an incision down to my tailbone, a LOT of pain, and that it would take about 3 or 4 weeks before I could sit comfortably again I decided to talk to my regular physician about alternatives to surgery. I consulted with the surgeon again and he thought that my doctor had reached the affected sinuses this time and said that he thought it would heel out fine. Just an alternative that may be available to those who want to try to avoid surgery. I hope that this was an appropriate place to post this. This is exactly the place for this information.
Personal experience gets through better than anything else.
The only problem is that if the cyst is affected all the way through the sinus down to the tailbone a regular family doctor would not be able to take care of it because you start getting into areas with muscle, etc. The surgion that I consulted with said that if I had come to him in the beginning he wouldn't have hesitated doing surgery. I just have to question the idea of putting aside options that may take care of the problem, with less time and pain, and diving right in to surgery. I would suggest finding out what options may be available, surgery may be the solution in your case, however, I am discovering that it may not be the only solution. However, once the first surgery has been done, the only thing I know of is MORE surgery.
