Ovarian lesion with internal vascularity, afraid of ovarian cancer
Posted , 3 users are following.
back in march i had bad stomach pain that i thought was my apendix, i went to an urgent care and they sent me for a CT SCAN. everything looked good they said except for a lot of fluid in my pelvis and they thought i had a cyst that ruptured and they were afraid i had a bleeding issue and sent me to the ER. they did an internal and said the fluid was normal but found a lesion on my left ovary with internal vascularity measuring 1.8x1.5x1.6 and said to follow up with my GYN. she sent me for an MRI with contrast and MRI reported they didnt see anything. idk how thats possible? im afraid they just missed it on the mri, and my gyn wont do another internal for 6 months because the mri said nothing was there. but its really messing with my anxiety because i know with the internal flow thats most likely malignant.

I can relate to the anxiety of not being sure if something is wrong. My suggestion would be to get a second opinion, see another OB and explain you'd like to be sure, and don't be afraid to ask the doctor to prove it's not cancer to alleviate any concerns you have. It's better to be over tested and nothing show, than to possibly miss a potentially life threatening disease. Good luck, my thoughts are with you.

hi i thought the same thing but my
cyst had internal vascularity and was a benign dermoid cyst they couldnt tell what it was on ultrasound but it was so big the mri was able to give
me an accurate diagnosis. i would go to a more corporate, centralized radiology office not a private doctor!
