Ovarian Cyst

Hi, am 45 years old married and no children, I was recently diagnosed with endometrosis ovarian cysts, and calcium deposit in my right kidney, I was having this symptoms since I was 15, like, pelvic pain, pain in my right side, I did IVF in 1997 and had my fellopian tubes open 5 years ago but did not get pregnant. How did doctors miss the endometriosis and cysts when they performed surgeries and IVF? everytime  I asked them why are my tubes blocked, they allways said, we dont know what causes them to block, now that I was diagnosed with that after one of my cyst ruptured, I think that this was the cause of my  infertility, please someone  answer am relly sad.

hi there
sorry to hear what you've been going through.
however, it is possible that you did not have a cyst when you went through ivf given that it was 11years ago.
you also may not have had endoemetriosis (or maybe a very mild case).
i had ivf 9yrs ago and 7yrs later was dx'd w/ endometriosis and cysts = neither was evident 9yrs ago.

Hi hon. I'm sorry you are scared and a little confused by what  may have been missed diagnosis'. It is very hard when you feel like something may have been kept from you or missed completely. I hope your doctor's appointment, tomorrow, goes very well for you. Try to write down all the questions, you have for the doctor, before you go. Once you actually get to see them we sometimes forget all of our questions and we walk out without the answers we so desperately needed. I'll be thinking about you, and let us all know exactly how you are doing, afterwards.

Hugs,
Shari
