my mother has severe pain from a bleeding ovarian cyst, what can make her not hurt so much?
about 3 months ago my mother started having abdominal pains, she had gastric bypass surgery last year so we immediatly brought her to the hospitol so she could get checked out. turns out that she had a stomach ultcer and an ovarian cyst. the cyst is 1 centimeter. the doctor, who is not a gyno says that it was non cacerous and to just let it run its course and it should dissaper on its own. he sent her home with a prescription to hydrocodone 5 mgs, which really helped her get through the day alot. while they were doing a more extensive search of her insides, the doctor said that her cyst was bleeding, so he took out the blood that had built up in the are. ive done alot of reading up on the internet and have yet to find someonme with a similar case. she is in alot of pain and the medical bills are racking up very quickly, if there is anyone else out there who has experienced this or similar or knows someone who has please help! she is in alot of pain, it hurts her to stand or do things, but sometimes she has no pain, any suggestions on how i can help alleviate her pain beside appling heat, taking a warm bath laying down or prescription pain killers, keeping in mind that she also has a stomach ulzer so there are certain things that should help but she cannot take. i dont know what to do and we dont have all this money for pointless doctor visits. thank you for your time and patients, and hopefully answers too
here is a good site for more information. It also claims to have method to ease the pain and suffering. Might be worth a check.
Those are very painful. Ask the doctor. Do not give your mother anything to ease her pain without consulting a doctor.
