I Look Pregnant!

I have a large ovarian cyst and now I'm getting fibroids.  I am taking a strong B.C. pill to shrink the cysts, and I don't really want to have surgery. I have put on 10 pounds and I look about 5 months pregnant.  I'm trying to work out more and watch what I eat, but nothing seems to work.  Has anyone had this problem, and has anything worked for you?

The doctor told me i have ovarian cyst and right now i am having pains on the right size and i am on Hydrocodone and and other meds and i am a diabetic and they can't do suguary on me yet til my sugar goes down, but i am in so much pain i just cry every day. my doctor told me it was bigger than a softball on both sides. i am scared i want more children cause i only got 1 little boy. My suguary is set on the 26th. People ask me when i am going to have my baby cause i look pregnant i wish i was. but yes my stomach is big like i am due today or tomorrow. Question: When i get a suguary and they remove the cyst is my stomach going to get smaller again?

Heya. I have had the same problem, I had a 30cm ovarian cyst and just got it removed in april, it looked like i was about 9 months pregnant the doctor said, they couldnt weigh it because it was so big lol. I wouldnt worry about the surgery, get it over and done with :) all you can do really. they removed my ovary and the tube thingy as well as the cyst. but im doing really good now. hope you are ok and all that.

I too appreciate reading this forum. I've been feeling embarrassed because my belly - which already looked about 2 mos pregnant - is now looking more like 6 mos pregnant. There's something reassuring about finding a thread with others who have been there. It's evening now, but I'm going to call my doctor in the morning.
