Could this be ovarian cancer that has spread?

Hello, I have recently been told that i have a large complex cyst in my abdomen.  I had gone to my Dr because i have spotting in between my period for about 4 months.  My Dr sent me for a ultra sound which revealed my cyst, then i was sent for a CT scan and was told the size of my cyst.  The problem is, my cyst is to large that they cannot see where it is coming out of.  I have been referred to an oncologist, and now im going through extreme anxiety.  They are saying that my CT scan also revealed some sort of holes in my lower spine.  My family dr said that because of this i now have to go to an MRI and bone scan.  Does anyone know if this is an indication of ovarian cancer spreading to the spine?  Waiting for answers is literally driving me crazy.

I really do not know. I guess you have to wait for the further tests. When are they? I know you are scared that is normal. I wish I could say something more helpful. I am here and I care.

Thank you HVAC, I have 2 MRI appointments june 27 and 28.  One is for pelvic and one for abdomen.  I just wonder if this can be sped up if i go to the hospital or if they would just send me back home.
