bilateral adnexal cysts
I went to the doctor yesterday because my back has been hurting the doctor order a MRI which i did and it showed that I have a bilateral adnexal cysts and a fibroid uterus. He sugested I go to my ob and have it checked out asap. My question is I had a hysterectomy 5yr ago how can I have any fibroids. I can tell by the doctor face that he was realy worried about me and of coars my ob was gone for the day so I have to wait until monday. I have so much mixed emotions wright now Im trying not to think about it. If any one has any info please write back
well Iv'e spent the day trying to see if I can still apply for health coverage and there is a 6mos waiting period if surgery is needed, now Im not sure what to do should I go to the doctor and pay out of my pocket which I can do but what scares me if I need surgery how am I going to pay for this I know Im probly jumping the gun here but I dont know what to do next.
Hi Arlene,
I am 48 and have a Son and a Daughter (I'll be 49 next Tuesday), both in college now. We are accustoming ourselves to "The Empty Nest". I think you are wise to put off talking to the kids as it tells me you are aware that you only have preliminary info at this point. You have already had the uterus and cervix removed so have taken the max action in terms of your maternal health history. So I am guessing you still have both ovaries, is that right? As far as the fibroid guess goes, remember that is is just that, a guess. See the OB/GYN and have a US. Try not to worry in the meantime. If you do Arlene, come here. MV

Hello Arlene and welcome!
Hurry up and wait! Cyber Scream, for sure! AAARRRRGGGEEEOOIIIIEEEOOUUUEEEAAAAHHHHHHMMMMM! Adnexal refers to the location of the cysts. I am guessing that your OB will want an ultrasound as that is really the primary imaging method used for our "aliens". So you had a total hyst? Keep in mind that ovarian remnant syndrome (ORS) is called rare but we hear from Gals here on the site, all the time, who develop cysts where their ovaries use to be. Fibroids, although associated with the uterus, can develp in any smooth muscle. So tell us what led you to the hyst, how old you are, kids, etc. Welcome to the gang Cyster, we call ourselves The Battalion. Mary V
