has Jan in her thoughts and prayers
About Me: Female, 70, FL, member since Dec 2007
December 2007 had pain left ovary, much like ovulation pain (couldn't be that since I'm postmenopausal) And it was more severe.Thought perhaps Diverticulitis since I'd had that before . The pain radiated to back , slightly queasy.. Went to Dr. .. not diverticulitis. Had ... [More] a routine Gyn appt. following week .It was suggested I have the Transvaginal Ultrasound which indicated a small cyst, perhaps fibroma. I was given the CA-125 test only because I was postmenopausal and cysts are a bit more worrisome at that age. I also had 2 small fibroids, and fluid in uterus neither which should have been there. Ca-125 was low.
A laparoscopy was performed removing the ovary along with cyst. D&C for the fluid and the fibroids were checked out. All benign .. I was told I could have monitored this cyst for a few months, but I chose to have the procedure instead. At my age, it was not a problem to have the ovary removed. I remain on both Ovca and Ovcy boards to share my experience and perhaps ease any fears especially in postmenopausal women having the same anxiety that I had [Less]

Oh I can't wait to be a tough broad (hate that word but my dad always uses it) in my later years. God does give us things to look forward to with glee!
