can my nausea be related to dermoid cyst

[hmags]

I was recently told that I have a dermoid cyst which is 7cm. My doctor seems in no rush to remove it and wants to schedule the surgery for almost 3 months from now.
I am wondering if I should look for another doctor who could remove it sooner. I have also been suffering from nausea for the last few weeks and am wondering if this could somehow be related. I know I am not pregnant. I cannot find any information about symptoms people experience with dermoid cysts.
Thanks for your help

Hi,
    Yes nausea can be a symptom of cysts.. and dermoid cysts can become quite large I understand. There will be ladies with "Dermoid " experience replying, I'm sure And yes, you can always get a 2nd opinion if you're not comfortable with your present Dr. Keep checking this forum and I'm sure you'll hear from ladies that have had Dermoid Cysts..

Hi there i have just been told i have a dermoid cyst also the size of a apple after much much pain and taken to hospital they found it on a ct ct scan then transvaginal ultrasound, i was first told i was having it removed that evening as urgent but then my pain died down so i went back as a out patient and now i have to wait up to 3 months also, i am confused as i was told they can rupture and mine did twist and cause me agony but now they are in no rush.
I have been researching them and i am in shock with what i have read about them having hair, teeth, and cartlidge etc how vile is that?
I am sooo scared it can rupture and i get pins and needles down my left leg all the time and read they can cut blood supply, do you have this sympton?

Can dermoids ever cause diarrhea? Please, someone, tell me if you ever had diarrhea after diagnoses of dermoid.

I have a dermoid cyst too. It's 10 x 10 x 6 cm. I can't believe your docs are ok with waiting 3 months. Mine grew rather quickly so my doc was ready to take it out the day after my appointment, but I talked him down to a week from then so I could sort it out with work and my family. It's set for tomorrow...wish me luck!

I did go through bouts of naseua and diarrhea. It was like one week I'd be completely constipated and then the next week, I'd have diarrhea. I think cysts just mess with a bunch of other stuff in your body.

I don't know how you feel about waiting three months for your surgery...I felt like this past week was torture waiting on surgery. I would definitely see if there's another doc who sees this as more urgent.

I had a dermoid and suffered from terrible nausea, although my cyst was torting my ovary so I mainly got the nausea when I was suffering from intense pain.

7cm is pretty big.  Maybe you should be more assertive
