possible ovarian cyst burst - should i go to doctor ?

[amiwastigntheirtime]

About 2 yr ago i had abdo pain quite bad that went on a bit and eventually i got admitted for day and had an ulatrasound which said probabloe ruptured cyst and packed me off with some anti b;s for a probable water infection. anyway odd times i get this niggly underlying abdo pain but nothing as bad and my last smear came back in Dec clear so im not uber paranoid. Anywy sturday night i was woke up with really bad pain inn left side lower abdoem, a bit like really bad wind then cramping - it went off eventualy and i had some cocodomol that helped, now i have the abdo pain like i had the yr or so ago. Is it worth goign to the doctors or will they be like err and so what ?

I would be asking the GP for a referral to a gynaecologist in your particular circumstances. This warrants further investigation, the underlying cause of the pain needs to be properly determined.

In the meantime keep a pain and symptom diary.

Do not be fobbed off, you are not wasting their time.

Thanks Attila, i have got in this afternoon for 5, couldnt get with a laydee doctor so will just have to man up and suget it myself. I have apee bottle at the ready beacsue they are bound to check whilst there.........

Yeh could go to GP for check up.

I had an emergency operation last week because of suspected appendicitis. They took out my appendix and also noticed a cyst had burst in my ovary and cleaned it up, and they said were sending the fluid to pathology.

pain is predomo on the left and gp said appendix on right , anyhows he had a prod of my belly and checked water sample and has refered me for an ultrasound..... we shall see.....

Yeh that's right, appendix on the right.
On the left low down is your ovary, bladder and part of bowel.

Was your urine sample (dip stick test) negative to rule out wee infection?

yes wee sample negative pain somewhat milder today thankfully but a little on the right too when it does rear its lovely head. I am probably going to be one of lifes medical mysteries.
