I am having an ovarian cist removed?

Hi, I have been informed that I have an ovarian cist, it is roughly the size of an orange so it will need to be surgically removed through an opening in my bikini line. Basically im worried about the procedure and my recovery afterwards. I would like to hear from other people who have been through this before. I am interested in what their worries were prior to the operation and how they recovered with or without complications. many thanks for reading.
