In my next life....I wish to be a man with no health issues!

I just returned from my follow up U/S for my ovary cysts.... my urogyno found 3 of them at my last visit 7 weeks ago and wanted me to wait to do anything about it cause he thinks they are not serious and they will go away... 7 weeks ago they were the size of nickles...

Today... are you sitting...... there is one the size of a softball/ grapefruit and the other a size of a tennis ball... NO WONDER I FEEL LIKE CRAP! I have had constant bladder pain for weeks! She also said I have a gall stone.

The tech said she was taking this info the the Dr ASAP and I would most likely hear form them today about what to do.... everything I research says surgery to remove.... I think laproscopy (belly button) but either way.... no fun!

If its not one thing, its another ....right???

Can I give up yet???

So on my to do list......

Have another ASD closure for 5mm hole in heart
Remove ovarian cysts
Recover from Lyme Disease
and feel better form my current bladder infection turned yeast infection....

I am thinking screw paying my taxes on time and go to Hawaii for the week???

I get them darn things too. DR was ready to do surgery a two months ago then it popped. It sure hurt when it did. I was snowplowing at the time. I pretty sure I have a nother one. Good luck

I used to get ovarian cysts all the time too. One time one burst and they not only had to remove the cyst, but they had to remove the ovary. The cyst was a size of a softball when they removed it. They grow really fast and they sure are painful!

Eventually you grow out of having cysts. I sure did! Thank God!

hmmm I don't think its normal, but it is normal to wait and see if they break on theri own as most are just fuild filled from when you ovulate. I would ask your Dr.

my doc the one who said they were normal....
I get shooting pains a lot though.
Im getting a new gyno...he is a case...im not kidding. Everyone has been trying to warn me about this one, and I had to learn the hard way.
I love him as a person, but golly day! I pay too much money to get the run-a-round...I could really tell some stories!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i guess we will see if they burst....last time one did, I ended up in the ER.

I know how you feel I just found out my cyst is back on the only ovary I have left. I hope your gyno does the lapro on you soon. sounds you may have polycystic ovaries.
