Frustrated

[Starynite]

Im new to this forum and im not sure exactly what to say but that I am so frustrated living with ovarian cysts. I found out in latter part of June that I have 4 cysts and number 5 errupted.One of the sumptoms I had was heaviness in my pelvic area and my bladder was being moved and causing allot of pressure and I had to go to the restroom alott. It was then that I decided to have an exam. I can also tell you that even before all this began I had no idea what was going on with me. The feeling of emotional outbursts, crying, gaining weight and frustation would come and go all the time. It wasnt until I had the US done than I could understand why all these things were happening to me. I am still dealing with this and currently I am searching for some help and some quidance and support. I can not deal with this alone.
I have been very blessed and have a wonderful finace that has to put up with all the emotional distress. I just need support form you guys that have the same thing I do....Thanks for reading this I hope I can help someone as well..

Yes, you are definitely in the right place if you want people who understand how this frustration feels. I am still trying to get to the bottom of what is going on with me, and I can honestly say that this whole process has really been the worst thing I have had to deal with.

Like your fiance, my poor boyfriend has to deal with all the emotional distress that comes along with these type of issues. It's not only hard on me, but hard on him and hard on our relationship. I am very lucky that he is so patient, understanding, and loving. I don't know how I'd do it without him.

I feel your pain, was just diagnosed with a cyst myself but have been dealing with the pain for yrs and didn't know what was wrong.

Hi!  I just had a 6 cm right fibroid and right ovary removed on 8/23/11, laprascopic. Also did a D & C. It was outpatient surgery. We watched it for a few years and this past year it grew enough where he felt it would be good to remove it.  It was wreaking havoc on my periods, intimacy and cramping through out the month.  I am 2 days post op and feeling pretty good.  I was too very nervous about the surgery but knew I had to get it over with.  They made 3 small incisions in my belly.  My belly is tender. It's somewhat painful getting up and I try not to bend over.  Once I am up walking around I feel very little discomfort.  I take 3 ibuprofens every 6 hours and it's doing the trick.  I have read on here about trouble with Gas Pain but I haven't had that issue.  When I went into surgery he didn't know what exactly he would find and if he would be able to do it laparoscopically.  I don't think they really know until they get in and take a look inside.  I was sad to lose right ovary but the fibroid was in a spot where he couldn't save it.  He said the left ovary will take over.  I hope this helped you all in some way.
