Bloating for 4+ Months?

Hey, ladies!  I've been reading through these posts for days now, and I have to tell you...I am relieved to hear of other women's stories.  I had been experiencing typical symptoms of a cyst, thought they were gastrointestinal and saw my family doc in June.  Ultrasound showed small simple cyst.  No biggy, no worries.  Symptoms persisted and got worse, especially the bloating (I look 4,5 months preggers all the time).  After a shift at my hospital, I headed to the E.R. due to the pain but mostly because I was tired of being uncomfortable all the time.  U/S showed a complex cyst in the same spot but bigger.  This was a week ago.  Bloating all the time now.  At first it was up and down but now it is sticking around.  MRI last Thursday and no call yet (guessing this is good news).  I am being scoped tomorrow.  Cyst measures 3cm, which I know is still not too big.  My OB is still convinced I have IBS.  He is a jerk.  I have had almost no change in bowel movements, and I am down a few pounds in weight.  

Anyway, sorry to ramble on.  But, have any of you bloated for so long with just a small cyst?

Thanks!!!
