Anyone else find they are extremely exhausted??
I was wondering if anyone else has been experiencing extreme exhaustion? I find that I am tired all the time. For those of you who do not know, I have an 8cm complex cyst that seems to be growing quickly (grew 3cm in 2 weeks) that will be removed on June 8th. I am also experiencing hot flashes and itchy skin. Anyone else experience any of these things?

I have a dermoid cyst (9x7) and i find that I am extremely tired as well and really fatigue. I cant seem to stay awake at work in the days. Dont know if its becuase of the lot of blood/blod clots I lose every month. But I am iron pills and they dont seem to work. So maybe I need to get rid of this cysts ASAP!
I had hot flashes (I am peri-menopausal but the hot flashes dropped dramatically after surgery leaving one ovary) and itchy skin with my cysts. I can't recall if I had fatigue but I do know that with the extreme pain (was on percocet) that it did tire me out.
Before I found out about my dermoids I was extremely exhausted.. I even started feeling mentally foggy and my speech began to slur. After the surgery I felt so clear minded and brand new.
I also have hot flashes most times n I constantly have fevers. Sometimes i feel really cold n then i get really hot!

I've actually been really tired lately and my body also hurts constantly. My skin has also been a bit itchy lately and dry.
hey marie, I am really exhausted, sleep all the time, but my biggest complaint is back pain, severe bloating, mild headaches and severe nausea and heartburn...Do you get that at well. I feel like such a whinner to my husband, but I just feel so sick on and off all day. I go this wed to my gyny, to see if this complex cyst is cancerous or not I guess I am borderline and they need to go in and find out forsure. Please write me back, I have ask this to so many people here and no one will answer me....thanks.....virginia
Virginia, I am so sorry you are going through all of this crap too. It stinks. The pain we have to deal with is so bad. Like you, I feel so bad complaining to my husband, that is why I get on here a lot. I am a bit surprised that your doctor said he is going to be able to tell you if your cyst is cancerous (is he doing a needle biopsy) without taking it out and biopsying it. That is the only true way to know if your cyst is cancerous or not (that is what I have been told by all of my doctors that I have seen). Good luck at your doctors appointment. Please let us know how it goes.
