Side pain w/ ovarian cysts

I have this recurring pain on my left side from the narrowest part of my waist to my low abdomen.  In December it was really bad and I went to the ER.  They did an ultrasound and said the pain was caused by ovarian cysts.  That part wasn't surprising because I've had them before, but it surprised me that the pain could radiate so far up my side.  Has anyone else had this?

Hello,
Causes of such pain could be due to kidney stones, pelvic infections, urine infections, twisted ovarian cyst or rupture of ovarian cyst, appendicitis or any other referred pain due to other organ infections.

Get it evaluated and an ultrasound done from a gynecologist to confirm the diagnosis.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
