Symptoms of burst cyst?

[diamondgirl2]

Hi again,  just wondering if someone can tell me what the symptoms of a burst cyst are?  Yesterday I had the most horrendous day, I have had back and stomach pain now for over a month, in the past couple of weeks constantly, but yesterday the pain was so much worse.  It didn't matter what I took, nothing worked and I just writhed around on the bed, couldn't sleep either and usually the codeine makes me sleep.  I was very close to going to the ED but it is a fair way away and I just kept hoping that the pain would ease.  Most of the pain was in the lower back.  Then when the pain became really intense (I was crying), suddenly I started bleeding and then slowly the pain began to ease.  This was after hours and hours. I eventually got to sleep about 2am and slept until 6am.  I am now not sure if this was just the start of a period or something else.  The pain was not like period pain, not cramping but constant.  Has anyone else had something like this happen?  The pain this morning has been quite manageable compared to yesterday, and I have no sign of period pain with bleeding (still going on) which is strange because I usually have bad pain the first day or so.

I've never had one burst (as far as I know), but it makes sense b/c of your symptoms.  However, I would be cautious and make sure you don't get a fever as this would indicate infection.  Good luck - the pain stinks!  Lilly

When my cyst burst it felt like I was going into labor. My stomach hurt sooo bad and it went to my back and sometimes shot up to my breasts.  The pain lasted a couple days and never really died down.

This thread is over a year old and it belongs in the ovarian cyst forum.

Hi, I've been having pain on my left side for over two months now and the doctors can't seem to find anything without me having to go to a specialist ie. (gynocologist) The pains started out really bad and I ended up going to the hospital where they gave me pain medication and then basically sent me home, The ultra-sound showed nothing! I got my period 2 days later it lasted 2 days, my shortest period ever. My mother is a herbal practitioner and nurse, she thought it might me Endrometriosis and she recommended that I take **** Quai and Oil of Primrose. I have to say that since I started taking them the pain has reduced, but I have noticed that if I don't get enough night sleep that the pain is alot worse, I say NIGHT sleep because I often read all night long and then sleep all day.  So try the herbs they might help, Start taking one pill each a day but no more then two until you get used to the herb.

I have been diagnosed with a cyst on my right ovary.  The pain in my right side has been so severe I want to double over and the pain radiates to my lower/middle of back.  The pain comes and goes in my side now with a few twinges now and then.  I am wondering if I could have a ruptured cyst.  What should I look for.  I no longer have periods and have not experienced any bleeding.  But for 5 days the pain was so intense I couldn't sleep.
