Ovarian Cyst?

Hello, I am 34 years old and think I may have an ovarian cysts...I will be seeing my ob-gyn this coming Tuesday but wanted to write on this forum to get some advice. Here are my symptoms:

Started off as severe bloating, every day I am bloated (this has gone off and on for weeks now)
Pain/Pressure in the pelvic area on left side only...(This just started to happen a few days ago)
Pain under rib cage, almost as if I have a lot of gas/pressure buildup and am unable to release it.
Lower back pain (Not all the time)
Difficulty breathing (I think this may be due to the bloating and pressure, sometimes when the bloating goes down a bit I can breathe better)
Jaw/Sinus pressure (not sure why I have this, but I do have TMJ so again, this could be caused by the bloating and pressure, everything pushing up)

I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced these symptoms who have ovarian cysts? Hopefully I will get some answers myself when I go to the doctor's...

Thank You.

The pain, pessure and lower back pain were among my symptoms.  I did not have the others.  Others on this forum have mentioned some of the other symptoms you listed.  Hopefully, they will come along and share their stories with you.   Welcome to the forum!
