Default Ganglion Cyst

I have had a ganglion cyst on my left wrist for about five years. It has been mostly pain free and hasn't given me any problems other than the occasional flare up and bump on the top of my wrist, so I've been ignoring it.

The last month or so, it's gotten a lot bigger, hurt more, and now I'm losing grip strength in the affected hand. I'm going to have to have it removed.

Has anyone had this done? The surgery is outpatient, and from what I'm being told fairly non-invasive. How long before I can return to flying?

Thank you,

EM
