Hi I am a 20 year old female,
and for the past 4 months now I have been suffering from severe abdominal pain.
It started with an intermittant stabbing pain in my right underneath my hip bone
and the next day i had pain in my lower abdomen as well as the same stabbing.
(this was the day i finished my period).
I went to the hospital, they did an ultrasound and found a cyst on each ovary, one with bleeding into it.
I went to see my doctor 2 days later and he ordered another ultrasound.
the cysts were gone on this ultrasound.
The pain has gotten worse and is now a twisting/tearing pain in my lower abdomen on both sides,
stabbing pains in my sides and a constant severe lower back ache.
The pain seems to get worse each time i get my period?
I have had 4 ultraounds (one internal - which was about a month ago and revealed another cyst).
a CT scan, countless blood and urine tests, a stool sample test,
multiple xrays (upper GI with small bowel follow through and some other ones of my stomach).
I have had 2 internal exams (they found slightly abnormal cervical cells - but assured me this is common)
I am going for laparoscopic surgery in 2 days to look for endometriosis and cysts, scar tissue, etc although
my gyno told me he doesnt think its a gynecological issue.
No one can figure out whats wrong with me.
I dont know what to do, I am in so much pain that I can barely get out of bed some days, sometimes cant walk,
I lie in bed writhing around and crying, or i have to sleep all the time because it hurts so bad.
My doctor gave me come pain medication but it isnt helping anymore.
He also tried to tell me that I was just constipated but i know this isnt the issue as I have always gone the same and never had this problem,
I also changed my diet to more fruits/vegetables and more water and go everyday and still in constant pain.
I also feel depressed, and anxious alot. and im bitchy.
please help!
