Should I Just Blame Anxiety?
Posted: 01-26-06 15:57pm

Last jan I had a 15cm by 15cm cyst on my right ovary - it was the first time I had ever been in pain or ill like this in my life - I had an emergency operation the remove the cyst, ovary and tube

then in feb I had another cyst on my left ovary - had an operation to remove the cyst and they saved my ovary. I was told both times that I have a high chance of getting them again and next time they don't know if they will be able to save the ovary and that its going to be a ticking time bomb and my chances of having children are very low.

March I was back in hospital again with internal bleeding (very very painful)

april I had a scare - nothing wrong

may I had a scare and was in so much pain - was told that it looked like something had rupured but was fine

june went on birth control to try and rest my only ovary for a couple of months

july was still on the birth control

aug - was fine

sept - was fine

oct - started to get pains again but on my right side in which I have no ovary

nov - started to get the pains again started on left side and moved to right side but my right side always feels worse even though I know I have no ovary on that side

dec - pain even worse and also got period pains which I have not has since the operatiom

jan - just had a very painful heathy blood clutted (sorry) period and now I have finish 3 days ago and I am starting to get pain again but at the moment on my left side and my belly is rock hard and tender on eft side but not right side

i know the pain is there I can feel it - but could it be anxiety?

I am so scared of losing my only ovary left and want children so badly but now I am scared to go and see the doctors in case it is nothing and I am wasting there time and its just anxiety -

Why worry about wasting a doctor's time? Do they ever apologize for wasting anyone else's when you're in the waiting room for a half hour? If you're worried, get it checked out. That's what doctors are there for.

I agree with lennon, you should go see your doctor. Never worry about wasting there time. That is what doctor's are there for. I have been to the doctor so much lately but you cannot worry about "their" time. You have to look after yourself.
So, go to the doctor okay? I hope that you find out what is going on.
Take care

Thank you for your messages.

Yesterday I did an ovulating test to eliminate that the pain is being cause by this (which was what was happening before when I had false alarms) and I am not ovulating.

The pain at the moment is not unbareable and is not constant it keeps coming and going. I am going to see how I get on today and if the pain gets worse then I am going to see the doctor monday.
