Ganglion cysts

Yesterday yesterday (5/7/2015) went to the hospital with little sister and mummy to consult the bone specialist about my wrist that grow a lump since one year plus ago. While on our way to registration counter , Bump into mum's friend and tell her about it and ask her to recommend which doctor should I consult since she is working at the hospital.. So coincidence.. She also just done her cyst ganglion removal surgery and she told me better remove it .. As hers grow on her finger and it multiply.. She recommend me to consult Doctor C. as he is one of the top bone specialist in the hospital. When enter the room, the doctor seems to be very busy and his office got three nurse helping him to arrange this and that. Show him my wrist and he confirm is a cyst ganglion. Just like one year plus ago when I go for the xray scanning the doctor also proven is a cyst ganglion. And yet both the doctor also say the same thing that some people that grow cyst ganglion wont bother to remove it  if the cyst did not cause any pain or disturbance to them when carrying out activities. But my case .. Tbe cyst ganglion grow quite near to my wrist nerves so whenever I put too much pressure on it or terknock on something.. It pain like hell seriously .. So he schedule me to do the surgery on Friday morning (7/8/2015) and tell me about the surgery procedure .. He told me that he only will numb my wrist so Im still awake during the surgery.. Then ask him the surgery going to conduct in a room or have to go to the operation theatre.. He smile and say operation theatre.. And i did ask him whether pain or not.. He also just smile and say when inject will be a little pain after that you cannot feel d.. But Im awake le.. My gawddd but  luckily I just have to stay at the dayward and after six hours I can discharge and back home no need to overnight or not I really cant sleep lo..(yes.. Im a scardy cat)... Think back .. one year plus I been to few "tulang tabib" (those chinese urut urut.. Hahaa) to help me solve it but the result still the same.. The lump did not go away.. So ended up Now i have to go for surgery.. Just consult the doctor for not more than 10 minutes .. Already cost 200+ so expensive le.. No money really cannot go private hospital. Luckily I have insurance to cover the expenses. But Till now i Really dont know what causes it to grow on my wrist.. Doctor say it could be due to carry too heavy stuff..  Dont know is it because of carry too heavy stuff when I work with Redbull? Or is it because I play bowling with friends time swing wrongly? Hahaaa I really dont know.. And funny thing is I dont even know when it appear till someday when I writing some notes suddenly feel why my wrist so pain then only realise how come there is a lump there.. Anyhow tomorrow is the surgery day.. Even is a minor surgery but still make me think so much.. Hahaaa.. Hopefully after that it wont grow again.. 


Ganglion cysts are noncancerous lumps that most commonly develop along the tendons or joints of your wrists or hands. They also may occur in the ankles and feet. Ganglion cysts are typically round or oval and are filled with a jelly-like fluid.
