Here are her symptoms. She had her tubes tied 7 years ago and as of last year she gained weight for know reason. She use to workout and quit b/c it was causing more weight gain. When she arches her back a hard bulge appears in her abdomen and it is sore all over it including the sides like a bruising pain she says under the skin. She missed 3 periods last year which was unusual,had a ct scan done in dec 08 and it showed several ovarian cysts. Complains of pain that comes and goes on the lower part of her body near pelvic area. I know this is the wrong category but I need to know if any of these symptoms are ones to worry about.
If she had something seriously wrong it would have showed up on the scan. She should go get a pap test once a year. She should let the doctor know of any changes. If she feels the weight is causing her problems, all she has to do is eat healthier and exercise more. A 30 minute walk a day, would help. Tell her to keep away from junk food and anything sweet.

Yes. Even if it’s just the cyst she should talk to her doctor about having them removed to decide if its the right thing to do.
you/she should go to the doctor.. about it..because it might have.. and maybe not.. and maybe it is something else.. and that can be cured easily..
Bottom line she needs to go the doctor like yesterday.
Your wife is the victim of PTLS. Post tubal ligation syndrome. Check out some sites online about it. Women for years have complained of symptoms after tubal ligation and only a few docs recognize it as a true illness. Most do not want to accept it as fact because of possible litigation. Insurance companies don’t wnat to recognize it because it means they would have to add lubal reversals to their programs and would cost them more in meds then for permenant fixes like tubal ligations. It has many symptoms…Migrains, weight gain, lack of energt, heavy painful periods, hair loss, depression, cysts among many other things. She needs to see a doctor and be tested for cancer and have the cysts removed. Thousands of women complain of these problems and nothing is done. If i had known i would be having the problems i have now, i would have never done it. Until it is recognized, it will continue and women will not know the possible side effects until it is too late.
theovariancystcure.com is very informative. The article is very professionally written. I enjoy reading theovariancystcure.com every day.
The scan is good but not enough. Go to the doctor with your wife and have a complete workup done. See an OB-GYN specialist soon. She has the symptoms of many things including ovrarian cancer. Get her there now!
