I've had ovarian cysts before.
Over the past few weeks I've been having lower right abdominal pain with urinary symptoms. On Monday night the pain was so bad I had taken painkillers but couldn't get to sleep until 4am. I'd taken paracetamol, ibuprofen and tramadol but still couldn't get to sleep until after 4am even though I was really tired. I was on all fours with the pain, I tried having a bath but couldn't get comfortable.
The pain had eased by the morning, it hurts every day and it is painful now but not as bad as it was on Monday.
If this happens again should I go to A&E? At what point should I go to A&E knowing that it will probably have passed within 12 hours.
Lately I have thought I am peri-menopausal but now I'm not sure whether these symptoms could have been due to the possible cyst.
I'm not sure what to do.
TIA
