sit and wait game - but what about my ovary?

[valeroonie]

so i just got back from the gyno - and i got a bad vibe.  just in general.  anyways, he did a vaginal ultrasound (although didn't seem to go 'as deep' as the previous two i had - not sure if it matters), and said my 4.9cm complex cyst is now 2.9cm and we will do another ultrasound in 4 weeks.  
however on my detailed scan ultrasound performed a month ago - it said it was between my uterus and left ovary with possible impeding of ovary.  ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm shouldn't we get the ******* out???

comments?

hi it sounds good news if your cyst is getting smaller, lots of cysts do go away on there own, the important thing is that you are being checked regularly and if there are any changes your doc can advise you.

If you are uncomfortable with your dr., you would be wise in getting a 2nd opinion with a gyn/onc.  They are specialists and have seen it all.  They deal strictly with women's gyn issues.

Hello to all, My doc really doesn't communicate with me very well, good old HMO DOCS. lol  I literally (SP?) have to go to his office and corner him.  This is what my Ultra sound stated.

The anteverted uterus measures 9.0 cm in length with a maximal AP diameter of 4.4 cm and a transverse diamater of 5.3 cm.  The endometrial echos measure 6mm in thickness.  There is a small isoechoic 9 X 10 mm probable fibroid in the myometrium of the anterior body.  The right ovary measures 1.9 X 2.9 cm the left 3.9 x 4.7 cm containing an anechoic 3.3 x 4.1 cm cyst with posterior acoustic enhancement.  There is no evidence of fluid in the cul-de-sac.

Can anyone explaine to me if this is a normal cyst or a complex cyst??? The doctor is no help and I have put in for a 2 nd opinion with the insurance company but they say it can take months.  I am in pain almost all the time..  Thanks for any help with this matter.

Thanks,
Char
