I had an ovarian cyst on my right ovary to rupture yesterday. The pain was so debilitating and excruciating that I was rushed to the ER for fear of appendicitis. After a CT scan, they saw that I had a lot of fluid around my pelvis and still had a cyst of about 3.1 cm (which means it burst, but it has still not fully ruptured). While I am not in the excruciating pain I was yesterday, I am still in pain. How long does the pain of a ruptured ovarian cyst typically last?

I was diagnosed with a 4.2 cm wide ovarian cyst about 3 weeks ago. They didn’t give me any pain relievers until a couple days later, which was Tylenol with Codeine to also help me sleep a little.
2 weeks later, it’s still causing major pain. I’ve missed 9 days of school because of it. We went back to the doctor and he said he would refer me to an OBGYN.
I’m only 14, and this is my first cyst. My mom and grandmother have had a series of cysts and tumors. My mom has endometriosis too. We basically have a lot of heredity with this.
What are the chances that this cyst will have to be removed surgically, and what are the chances that my OBGYN will do a pelvic exam tomorrow?

Plus, I’m a virgin, so will that, along with the pain of the cyst, make this experience [pelvic exam] painful and severely uncomfortable?
At first, they thought it was appendicitis, but my appendix is fine, so they outruled that with a CT Scan with injection and barium. That’s how they found the cyst.

I have had pain, sometimes intense, sometimes mild achy pain, since 2/19/09. I went to the Immediate Care Center on Saturday and they thought it could be my appendix since it was on my right side. They did a CT scan and said I had an Ovarian Cyst (4.3cm in diameter) & it hurts like hell. I went to my OB/GYN on Monday and they said it would go away on its own & prescribed pain meds. They told me if I was still hurting in a few days to come back. I went back 5 days later & they again told me it would have to rupture on its own & prescribed me more pain meds. They told me to take 2 (7.5) Lortabs at a time & to keep them in my system until it ruptures. How long can this take? I really don’t want to keep taking this much pain medicine because it makes me nausous. I really don’t know what else to do & I was wondering if this has happened to anyone else?!?! Any suggestions would help.

Did an xray that lead me to a CT Scan. I was told that I had a small ovarian cyst and they were going to refer me to an ob/gyn.
I have HORRIBLE constant pain in my right hip/waist/back area (originally led me to dr) I also have sudden sharp pains near both ovaries. Nausua and occasional pain in pelvic area. Is this all from a "small" ovarian cyst? Oh and my last menstral cycle was VERY irregular and I have not had one since July 27th so this one is VERY late. PS I KNOW I AM NOT PREGNANT!
Just got off the phone with the nurse. The cyst is on my left ovary and its 3.0cm. I have been having the pain in my left ovary for over 6 months now.

Ok about 9 mths ago I started to get this pain in my groin area and lots of cramps in my lower stomach. I have the Mirena IUD also. Anyways the pain has been getting worse and worse like everyday allday and then last week I started to bleed clots. At my last CT scan they found a cyst on my ovary and it was about 2-4 cm. The pain is only brought on when standing or walking. I have had lots of ultrasounds and ct’s done and they finally found this. COuld the pain be from the cyst? I have felt nausea and all the symptoms above. If it was there before why wasn’t it found? What can be done now? Also my blood work showed elivated white count? PLEASE HELP. I have dr tomorrow and I am freaking out and I just don’t feel good. Also I have been having fevers off and on.

I have had the IUD for 2 yrs and the pains started 9 mths ago. Could that be it? If so why would it wait over a yr to start. TIA

Can ovarian cancer cause swelling, pain and pressure on the vagina and rectum to where you can sit in a chair straight.
Pain that runs down left inner thigh, lower back pain, pain in sides, and pelvic pain. Also, I have been gaining weight since January.

I have masses and ovarian cysts. One of these measure 9.7 hounsfield units. What is that? The doctor did a CA-125 test, ct scan, colonoscopy, and ultrasound inner and outer. I go back on Monday, and I can’t sleep.

I had a partial hysterectomy in 2002.
Also, My aunt was diagnosed in 2003 and died in 2004. She gained weight also. She weighed 400lbs and had gained weight when she died. She had a cyst the size of a mellon that busted during exploratory surgery. So, I am scared right now.

My appendix ruptured almost a year ago and the year before that I had an intestinal blockage (the doctor thinks they are un-related!). Though I’m told everything is fine I am still quite swollen and I’ve gained about 30 pounds. Very little "fat to pinch" on abdomen - just a hard, swollen feeling. Colonoscopy 1 month post-op was normal. I recently started experiencing tenderness on the left side. My doctor suspected diverticulitis but blood tests revealed normal white count (no infection), elevated BUN ratio, and slight anemia. I’m awaiting a CT scan (new insurance pending) to rule out ovarian cysts. Bottom line is that my body is just not the same as I’ve lost my almost-flat tummy and what was a sculptured waistline. And of course - I’m concerned with the recent discomfort. I recently read about "twisted colon". I’m grasping for any possible explanation… anyone experience similar scenario?

Ok, first of all I have seen doctors about this, and they are baffled, so I decided to ask and see if anyone had anything similar. This is kinda long too.

It started about a year ago, I was getting really sharp pains in my stomach, its always in the same spot, about 4 inches to the right of my belly button. Sometimes the pain is so bad my back hurts in a spot directly opposite the pain in my stomach.

I went to the ER last July and had many tests run, they checked for Ovarian Cysts, Gallbladder stones, Hernia, Appendix and even ulcers. Everything came back negative and I was discharged with undiagnosed abdominal pain. I saw a doctor and was told it was most likely an ulcer that didn’t show up on the CT scan(peptic is what she said). So I took various medications over the next many months and had a very bland diet.

The pain would still come and go though it wasn’t to unbearable. After a year of taking the exprensive medication and not seeing a change I talked to my doctor and we decided to quit them. I was fine for 2 months. In the last two weeks the pain has come back, and its bad. Instead of only hurting when I exerted myself its every single day now. Without fail, in the early to late evening every day it starts to hurt, it gets progresivly worse until I go to bed, where lying down helps a bit but not much. The pain is gone by morning only to come back later that day. Sometimes it hurts after I eat, sometimes not. There seems to be little to no pattern and its driving me mad. A recent idea from the doc is an excess of stomach acid, though i would think if this was the case the pain would be more generalized rather that in one spot every time.

I am just confused, lost and in pain and I want it to stop. I don’t know what else it could be or what else to do. My husband is scared and I am going to see if my insurance will cover a gastroenteroligist. But I am seeing my regular doc later this week, and was hoping for some new ideas as to what this is.

Oh and the only thing I can think of that could have possibly triggered this renewed bout of pain is that the weather has gotten much cooler in the last 2 weeks. No lifestyle changes or anything else. Oh and hot showers seems to make the pain flare up.

Thanks if you actually read all this and can maybe shed a little light on all this.
