Possible cyst

I had ovarian cysts alot throughout my life. I had to have one that grew out of control removed in my teen years through a full laparotomy. The others typical did go away on there own after time. I had a partial hysterectomy in October 09. I was going to have the surgeon take my right ovary as it was the one that had the huge cyst and normally would get the cysts and it hurt quite often. But when he went in he said they were both healthy looking so I kept them both. Today my right ovary is really really sore. To the point that it even hurts to sit. Is it something that I can just wait and get an appt for in a few weeks or so or get it checked now as the pain is so bad?

I think you should call and convey the level of your pain.  In general, they should work you in within the week.  It is important that you let them know that is hurts to sit.  Cysts can grow large very quickly and they are more likely to rupture if they grow past 5cm.   Your body is letting you know something is wrong and you need to listen and get it checked as soon as possible.  Let us know how it goes!

Thanks Shelly,
The pain was extremely intense last night but had started to get better as the night went on. Today its alittle tender but basically gone. I am thinking that it was a cyst bursting. It was very comparable to the pain I had before I had my appendix out!
