I've never heard of a cyst closing up & refilling, but with the human body anything can be possible. The problem with diagnosing appendicitis is that the pain can literally be ANYWHERE in the abdomen. I'm glad to hear that the scan showed it wasn't. It is possible that another cyst developed, as they can pop up. Hope the heat & Midol works... if not there's no harm in taking her back & getting re-checked.
Thanks Melissa!
I would think that too except she just ruptured the one a week ago and had no others on the sono they did in the ER. I wondered too if the ruptured cyst closed up and refilled with fluid. Not even sure if that is possible!
If it was her left side I would be less concerned but with the rt sided pain I always think what if..it were her appendix. Last week the inital diasgnosis was appendicitis because it looked all swollen on the sono but the CT showed the appendix to be normal.
I will try her with the midol and see if it helps!!! Thanks again!
When u have 1 ovarian cyst you are at risk of developing another. If the pain is really bad I would suggest heading to an ER & telling them she's already suffered 1 ruptured cyst & you are worried this may be another. They may or may not perform an ultrasound, but there is no harm in trying.
I found Midol helpful along with heat.
Hope that helps
Melissa
