Ask them how they would feel knowing that there was something growing inside of them that could become larger then an ovary and the constant worry of it going away or staying, surgery or no surgery, cancerous or not cancerous? Along with the pain, nausea and other symptoms cysts can cause. The stress of worrying constantly. The doctor appointments to make sure you are okay. If they are putting you down for the way you deal with it ask them exactly how they would deal with all of this bc there are many, many women who have described the pain of a cyst worst then child birth.
