I would not wait for 6 to 8 weeks, the cyst in its self is almost to the point of removal, I would get a second opinion, did you ask why they could not see the other ovary? If they made the remark in the report about a possible malignancy this should raise a red flag to get an anwser ASAP, 97% of all tumors/cysts are benign but is the slight case yours might not be, it is much better to catch it early. Ovarian cancer caught early is 90% curable. Good Luck As one lady on here says "You only have one chance to catch it early"
