I used to get pain in my upper left leg all the way up until a year after I had ovarian cancer surgery. The doctors said it was just a torn tendon and it would go away in 2 months max. but it ended up going on for a year . I was referred to a leg specialist and before I had a chance to go it went away on it's own. So I never got a chance to find out what it was.

I know we are both scared. ive been bleeding for a month now and have a bump where i think my right ovary is..the cyst/tumor ive had for 3 years in on the left. so im really freaking. I bet your okay! it could be from pushing (if your like me you probably do that) around your groin area or it could be your siatica (sp?) nerve since it hurts in your butt also. you said your stomach is swollen too? how bad is it? did you call your doc yet to see what he/she say about it?

Man girl..we are both freaking! you do like i do..going from ovarian cyst forums to here!  One thing you should remember is your complex cyst dissolved...ovc wont do that! did you get another transvaginal to know for sure it dissolved???

I understand that a problem with the lymph nodes in the groin can cause this. Are you noticing any swelling or tenderness there?
