Dermoid Cyst Causing Breathing Issues?

Hi all.

I have put off my dermoid surgery for a while now and I am thinking with the decline of Covid in my area that I will finally schedule my surgery.

That being said- I was wondering who has had a Dermoid Cyst here and what it was like for you surgery wise as well as your symptoms?

Over the last few months I have noticed that my energy levels are very low as well as pressure/hard to breathe sometimes. I definitely know it is my cyst as it is HUGE- about the size of a basketball.

My biggest fear is the anesthesia and being put to sleep as it terrifies me, however, I really do not have a choice at this point. The breathing is super uncomfortable for me and so is my bloat.
