Question about symptoms

I have a 3 cm simple ovarian cyst. I've been to the er twice since January for the same cyst due to extreme pain. They won't remove it, they say it's to small.
Today I had a new set of symptoms start. I took pain meds in the morning that I was prescribed so I could go back to work, but 2 hours into my shift I became very hot, sweaty, dizzy and white as a ghost. When I sat down the feeling would pass.
My question is, could this cyst be causing me these new symptoms??

I had a 6cm cyst, left ovary, left tube, scar tissue & endometriosis removed on Wednesday, 5.31.12. It was laproscopic and was supposed to be same day, but kept me overnight due to my pain being out of control. I was sent home the next day and have been taking it easy and getting by with the meds I have. The bleeding after surgery stopped about saturday 6.2 (3-4 days after surgery) and will randomly come back, sometimes very heavy, if I am standing or sitting for a while. This morning I woke up with horrible pain, and extremely heavy bleeding - like a period - and am concerned if this is normal. I go for my 2 week check up on thursday, but the only instruction I was given upon discharge of the hospital was if 'excessive' bleeding, go to the ER. The birth control I am on does not give me a period and I have not had one since I started it 4 months ago... I am still taking the same birth control. Does anyone have any advice or suggestions? i dont know if this is a period due to the homone adjustment bc of the ovary removal or if this is the 'excessive' bleeding the dr talked about.

I just had both of my ovaries removed  three weeks ago, due to a 5cm cyst on my right ovary.  Since I'm already pre-menopausal, my dr suggested removing both ovaries, sending straight into menopause.  I haven't suffered much, some extreme hot flashes.  I've noticed that my belly gets swollen from the top of my rib cage all the way down.  Is this normal?

I heard about natural methods to get rid of the ovarian cysts definitively, But I would like someone can tell me more about it. I read something in this website about natural methods and ovarian cyst ruptures

My question is if after the surgery the ovarian cyst can appear again. Did you ask your doctor about this?

hey there i had an ovarian cyst also and the drs can remove it with keyhole surgery due to it being so small and it wont mess with any of your bits. in order for them to do this though you need to see a gynocologist and ask them to refer you for keyhole surgery

Of course, you will get those kind of symptoms.For me also,when i went to doc last year,there  was a 2 cm cyst on my right overy.she told me it can be cured by medicine and then i took tablets for 6 months.After that I was no pain and no symptoms for only 3 months.Last three weeks ago,I got sharp pain and fever,dizziness. I needed to check with doc.She took scan and told my cyst size is 8 cm.Oh god,cant imagine.Urgently I needed to remove it.You better check with your doc and follow her advice..No need to worry:)
