Is another Ovarian Cyst Forming after a previous Rupture? Posted: 06-04-06 21:43pm
I have had an ovarian cyst rupture less
than two weeks ago on my right ovary. This
happened on a Wednesday, the very next day
I couldn't use the restroom and was rushed
straight back to the ER, where I was given
a chatheter and was given the option to
stay in the hospital or go home, I choose
to go home, my fiancee could take care of
me. Well I was suppose to go back that
Monday to get it taken out. They doctor
said the cyst had caused my bladder to
basically stop working, my stomach was
swollen and very painful cramps, back
pains, and rib cage pains. Well I didn't
make it to Monday I was back in the ER
that Saturday, in pain my stomach was
hurting alone with my ovaries. I wasn't
given very much for pain this trip another
doctor was on call that didn't know my
situation very well. Monday I went back to
my doctor got the catheter taken out and
seemed just very sore.
Well yesterday, I started having sever
pains in my back, ribcages, and both
ovaries. Very painful cramping, I was put
on birthcontrol to try and regulate my
hormones, to keep cyst's from forming. I
have been in pain for the past two days,
and my ovaries are steadily cramping, like
before when the cyst ruptured.
My question is, does this sound like I may
have another cyst forming?. I am in pain
serious pain, I have taken my pain
medication, it helps some but not very
much. I told my doctor I wanted test's ran
on my ovaries. I have had problems with my
stomach for two years, but never once were
my ovaries checked :(. I have been told I
had an ulcer, IBS, and alone with other
things.
Do you think I may have another one
forming or already ruptured? I can bearly
move without my back lower back being in
pain. Is there anything I can do to try
and keep from having this pain? My ovaries
aren't cramping like menstral cramps
either. Its sharp pains threw out my
back/ribcages/ovaries is this all related
to cyst's?
Thank you for reading my post. And any
response would be very appreciated.

You can see a gynecologist and request a
vaginal ultrasound. Vaginal ultrasounds
relay information to your doctor and can
identify another ovarian cyst, if there is
a cyst present at all. You can also
perform standard blood/urine analyses, a
pregnancy test, and an abdominal
ultrasound. If this is not enough to
establish precise diagnosis, a laparoscopy
will be indicated.
