So I had an 11cm ovarian cyst about 8 years ago when I was pregnant with DS. They aspirated it (massive needle through my abdomen) as they didn't want to operate. 6 months after DS was born they rescanned and the sac had gone so they said it wouldn't regrow.
A few months ago I had some cramping and increased urgency to urinate for about a week so they did an ultrasound scan at my GP surgery and said they could see 2 cysts which they thought were coming from the left side but they could not see either ovary with either external or internal scans. The cysts were 8x5.5xm and 4.3x1.8cm. The pain and urine issues had gone by this point but they said they would refer to gynae because I have had a cyst before and one was over 6cm. They said they looked fluid filled with a regular outline.
I saw the gynae today after a 10 week wait. He said the scan notes made no sense and didn't understand how they could not see either ovary or how they could assume ovarian cyst as they obviously didn't see they were attached to an ovary (what else could they be though?!).
Anyway so I am having another ultrasound to check and he did a bloodtest (CA125 and CEA which I think both check for cancer!).
I am getting a bit concerned. I have no symptoms but I am worried about cancer or if there could be issues from the pelvic inflammatory disease I had 5 years ago as the infection spread into my womb and possibly tubes and ovaries.
I suppose I just have to wait until the blood results/scan/follow up appt which will all be in the next 2 weeks. Hate waiting!
