So glad this was resolved. I get similar cysts as well so when I read your post the first time I really felt for you. I think you also opened a lot of our eyes to taking care of ourselves (I know you did for me).
I had one abscess on my lower right back and all the Doctor did was look at it, confirm "oh that's red", then circled it with a Sharpie pen.
2 days later I went back because it hurt. Again, she says "oh that's red and bigger" ... drew another circle around the circle she'd done before.
I was now looking like I had a Target logo on me.
2 days after that I was bent over in severe pain but I had a urologist appnt because kidney stones follow up LOL
Well that Dr. said "hey what's this, lifted my shirt and said stay here".
I literally heard him call a surgeon and said "hey are you busy - I'm sending you my patient and you need to take care of her NOW".
So yeah, I got put on a table, got a local, and a lovely big Dr. came in, held my hand and said "I'm so sorry but this is going to hurt, but it has to be done". So it was painful, but relieving. Afterwards he gave me a hug, and said "let me walk you to Member Services - you need a new primary care doctor".
I found out a year later she was gone - and I really hope I helped get her gone LOL
I will say that the 10 days of unpacking and packing was worse than surgery, but everyone was so kind.
I adored that surgeon and my urologist for being so kind. Its odd that you find the very best after having to deal with the worst.
