New here. Can someone help me with these symptoms ? Really nervous.

Posted , 5 users are following.

How is everyone doing ? Found this forum.

The last ultrasound I had they discovered cysts on both of my ovaries and op is scheduled pretty soon, however I have symptoms I'm nervous about. Any advice or similar experiences ? Thx a lot everyone !

1) Intermittent abdominal pain and loose stools

2) Intermittent lower back and leg pain

3) Weird pinching / needle pricking / dull cramping discomfort (not painful, it's just annoying but it ranges from the lower right abdomen, hips and area around the ovaries)

THANK YOU SO MUCH !

    Hi! Yes I had all of those symptoms- it’s normal but it can start to freak you out a bit. 

    #3) - I found got worse by end of day! The pain and prickling etc got worse by night and I would have to lay flat. Morning I was fine.

      Oh right. 

      Sadly I've had to call 111 as pain has came unbearable to point I'm in tears so now waiting for a doctor to call back to see what they say. Got pain both sides and top of my ridge thigh and lower tummy. Worried the doctor will call me back and tell me to go to a&e - don't want to be admitted to a ward again. The pain isn't like it was when it twisted at start of January when I found out I had it but don't want to leave it until I get to that point. 

      Till got week and a bit until op. Hoping for maybe strong pain meds to get me through until op. 

      I tried to explain to the guy on 111 that it's a cyst but they don't know what else it is as my scans are unclear and my case been to cancer team. 

      Hoping not to go to a&e
