Cyst and Ovary removal

Hello All, I just wanted to thank you for your support. I found this site while waiting for a second VU and then surgery. I had surgery on 11/13 where Dr. removed my ovary and a cyst the size of an orange. Found out today that it is endometriosis. Reading all of your stories and the support you have for one another gave me great comfort that whatever it was in me I would get through it. Thank you for allowing me into your lives. God bless!

Hi everybody
I am very new to this forum and i have been told 48 hrs ago ihave a large mass 7cm on my right ovary - im 52 yrs old in Hawaii dont know any ob/gyn although seeing 2 tomorrow to "interview" them and get their stories and see how I connect with them.   I am terrified I have CANER!   I am convinved I do thats just the way I ammade...this is the first time anything likethis has happened to me and I am in desperate need of talking to somebody who has "or is there"   The Radiologist report (did an VU) said it was neoplasm???   Does that mean a malignant diagnosis right away???
Please could somebody write back and help me out.....no symptoms, a bit of lower back ache and tugging in lower belly that I didnt even notice.  I ended up in the ER becsuse of sever gas pains - they thorouhgly chevked me out and found this "lesion"  HELP!!
Hysterical here............
Thank you

Welcome to the Endo club!
It's not a club we all want to join, but we're here for support if you ever need it. I had a cyst that turned out to be endo, and is apparently a lot worse then my (insert swear words here) doctor let on (along with alot of other things).
Hang in there, and remember, endo is treatable!
