surgical menopause/cysts

by tkjkmom, Feb 18, 2007 12:00AM
I had a hysterectomy 6 months ago after a csection & tubal. I was left w/ just my left ovary due to massive uterine hemorrhage. for well over 3-4 months i have had terrible low back, pelvic, & abdominal pain. End of January a CT & US showed a 5 cm hemorrhagic complex cyst. Now with more pain US yesterday showed that complex cyst was down to about 2.7 cm but that there was another newcyst attached to it which they could not tell whether it was fluid trapped in the ovary or a functional cyst that appeared around 2.7 cm also. Dr. thought this was good news, meanwhile, I am not feeling better, but feel worse pain. I was given percoset yesterday which took pain away when used w/ advil, but I cant live on that stuff. What are my options? Why would a new cyst be forming? Or if it is trapped fluid...what would that mean? Oddly they saw no "free fluid" in my pelvis, which they had seen in Jan. which seems weird if the complex cyst is draining? Shouldn't i be feeling better? I dont know how much more I can take.  Should my hormone levels be tested to see if that one ovary is functioning properly since surgery--hormonally?
