Ovarian Cysts

I have a 1cm septated cyst and a 7mm simple cyst in my right ovary and a dominant 1.3cm follicular cyst in my left.  Also ther is a small amount of free fluid in the adnexas bilaterally whatever that means.  And i found out my uterus is retroverted.

This all started from a Urinary Tract infection, then bleeding and a kidney stone in the back of my bladder.  I go to the OBGYN next week and I don't think i have too much to worry since the cysts are small but my question is would these cysts cause my back to hurt and it hurt/burn when i use the bathroom?

They could cause your back to hurt, especially if the pain is localized to the area of the ovary and is just radiating through.  I don't think they would have anything to do with burning when going to the loo, though.  If anything were to be draining from a cyst, it would probably find its way out through the tubes, uterus and vagina rather than the urinary tract.

Your story sounds semi-similar to mine.  I was having some severe lower back pain, and I felt like I had a UTI and I ended up having to go to urgent care and was treated for a UTI.  A week later I was still in massive pain that was radiating to my pelvis and my legs.  I had blood work, urine cultures, an ultra sound, t/v us, and a CT scan and it showed I had a dermoid on my ovary.   The whole time I had blood in my urine and ended up passing three kidney stones.  

I know there isn't any real advice in there, but I felt very similar to you so at least you aren't alone. I don't know if the size of your cyst can lead to that much pain.  I think it all depends on where it is.  I believe it is possible for it to push against your bladder or bowels causing pressure.  My dermoid is 2.0x2.3cm as of my last ultra sound, and I know it causes me some pressure and discomfort.

Best of luck to you!
