I hear your fear and frustration. Unfortunately the doctor will have to tell you what it means since it would be impossible to figure it out over the internet. P.c.o.s. is no fun. When do you hear back? Can you call the doctor's nurse to get a report? Can your primary care help you with the pain? I hope you do not need surgery as well.

Pain is no fun. Can you go to a pain clinic if nothing else?

I hope you get relief from the pain. Keep pushing until you get an answer which makes sense. I wish I had a better answer.

I can understand your fear. I have Multiple Sclerosis (a neurological disease) and Stage 4 Ovarian Cancer. I used to hate hospitals and doctors. I have literally seen hundreds of doctors since I was two and the Multiple Sclerosis started. They are just people who studied medicine. I used to shake when doctors examined me. Now I realize they are there to help me. I try to learn all the staffs' names. The nurses and receptionists. It is a fun thing to do. It also makes you friends because people like it when you call them by name.A simple trick is to notice their name tag and use their name.

I am scared but I have learned courage is being afraid and doing something anyway.

I care and am sorry you are scared and in pain.

I have just recently been diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and they also found an enlarged ovary. I'm waiting for other tests on the ovary and one of two possible kinds of surgery...depending on what the ultrasound finds.  So,  I'm in the waiting stage myself.I'm really glad to have found this site so that I can talk with others like you girls. It's really difficult when we don't get all of the answers, which is so very typical of medical professionals.  Thank goodness we at least have each other in this particular support group for help. I thank you and I will be there for you too as much as I can. I guess we will be back together fairly soon. Thanks, girls!

I much admire you fortitude.  My daughter was diagnosed with MS at the age of 27; she' s 44 now.
Her father also had it, but died from a heart attack.
God bless you.
