Overian cyst or overian cancer

Posted , 3 users are following.

Can anyone give me advise I have been suffering from a pressure feeling in my tummy for over 3 weeks, I had a ten day break of the dull ache and then it came back again.. it's just on one side were my right overy is. I have had a flexi camarea up my bum and it was all clear and had all my blood tests come back normal which is CEA CA125 and CRP and a full blood count. The doctor is now sending me for an internal scan to check for cysts but I am so worried incase it's overian camcer or cervical cancer.

It's not a sharp pain just dull so I know it's there constantly. I have had cysts before but never had dull aches or pains at all. Would something of shown in my bloods if it was something sinister? I feel sick with worry.

Thanks

It was put done to I b s it all came to a head last Jan when I was doubled up with pain ,the doctor thought divertiultus and gave me antibiotics . This happened three times the last time when it had settled down the doctor felt my tum and could feel somthing she thought a cyst , l had blood tests normal but when I went for a scan they found the cyst.

    Hi Laura. I had the same pain. It was constant pressure, tended to build more as the day went on and by most evenings I had to lay flat. It was 2 cysts I had on my right ovary. No cancer. It’s good they are checking for cycats in you!
