Ovarian cyst advise please
Posted , 2 users are following.
Have really been struggling with severe abdominal pain, feeling and being sick, unable to eat..down to one small meal a day. Saw stomach specialist who after ct scan and mri scan have found leisons in my liver...and also ovarian cysts showed up on scan. He has said generally the liver leisons should not be causing these symptoms. So could it be ovarian cysts causing all this pain...I had mirena fitted about 14 months ago. The pain seems to build up and build up over a few weeks then becomes unbearable....making me very sick...painkillers don't really seem to help...then I seem to have a small amount of darkish discharge...then pain subsides for week or so....then it all starts again? Never heard of ovarian cysts before and would really appreciated any advice. Thank you

Hi I am currently having 10 cm cyst on my right ovary and set for an surgery on August 20th to remove the cyst and the right ovary. Its gonna be a laparoscopy surgery but I am still nervous. I had the cyst for about 6 months but the pain started to build up since June. It became unbearable and I get spotting for days, and I have noticed that the spotting and the pain are related. So my doc told me to take Birth control pills to control my estrogens level. It worked better than the pain killers. I was off the pain meds for about 27 days then the period comes and the pain is back again. Please remove it, these things can get really nasty and can destroy our mood and daily activities. One more thing, if your cyst is big in size I would suggest you to stop doing extreme sports etc. I am into fitness and I think due to too much movements and my cyst got twisted or torsion the pain gets worse. I am just guessing. I suggest dont wait. Let us know what you have decided and so on. You're in my prayers.
