Could this be a cyst

I posted last month about a stabbing pain under my ribs and general ache in my back and right side.  I have since had a period for 1.5 days instead of my normal 6 days. I had severe pain in my lower pelvic region and could not walk for two days. My right thigh also ached. All symptoms then dissapeared for a week until they began again like clock-work 4 weeks to the day that they originally began. It seems to be worse when I am sitting for long periods of time or when I lift heavy objects. I have had x-rays and CT scans and I am just waiting for the results. Does any one have simular experiences?

I have had this exact same problem!  I thought I was perhaps having some type of authritis happening in my legs where they connect to my torso and then I thought my rib cage was perhaps kidney stones?  It feels like I am having a charley horse in my right rib cage and now they have found a mass about 2.5 inches on my ovary.  I hope this cures all the craziness!  I have been in so much pain!
