Another Rock In the Road For Me...
Posted: 03-03-07 11:10am

Well Tuesday night around 3 am I woke up with unbelievable pain in my right side, I instantly felt sick, spent 1/2 hour over the toilet but didn't actually throw up. Sad Sad Sad
Wed morning went to see my doc, she doesn't think it is my appendix but rather a ruptured cyst or kidney stones. I am on painkiller called "ketorolac" one of its side effects is decreased fertility, OMG I don't need that for sure. Crying
or Very sad Crying
or Very sad
I have a pelvic ultrasound on Monday morning to see whats going on in there. I took my bottle of ovulex with me so the doc could see what was in it, she doesn't think it had anything to do with my pain but told me to stop taking it until we figure out whats going on. My DH is still away up north and is checking up on me 3 times a day, he wanted to come home but there is nothing he can do anyway Confused
I am so scared at what they will find, hoping it isn't a problem with my ovary.
Please send me some good energy because I need it, my positive attitude is slipping away Sad Sad

Hi,
Like luvbam said, don't automaticaly think the worst. I have a horrible habit of doing that myself and i am trying not to do it anymore.
This may be a setback, but it won't be permanant. Maybe it's just not the right time right now. Maybe you just need to get through what ever is going on first so your body can handle being pregnant.
Keep us posted and keep your spirits up.
You are in my prayers.... and I am sending all the positive energy your way.

Ladies thankyou for all of your support. Smile
I always feel better after posting on the forum.
I'll let you know what the doc says after Monday ultrasound, although I will probably have to wait a day or two to find out the results. I will try to keep a positive outlook and my chin up.
Smile thanks again

Well, I hope you get to feeling better. Cycle before last I had multiple ovarian cysts and yes when they rupture you get very sick and are in a lot of pain. you have to do something for it though. I only took a couple of the rx pain killers and then they told me I could take 800 mg of ibuprofren every 6 or 8 hours. Anyways, update us on the visit monday.

Sounds to me like Kidney stones. I just went through that about 3 weeks ago and I know the feeling. I was huddled in front of the porcelain god until my husband came home and found me in shock from the pain on the floor and took me to the ER. Kidney Stones are no fun. If you ruptured a cyst the pain would be constant and from what I read yours does not seem to be. Maybe I am wrong. I dunno. If you do have kidney stones be prepared for feeling like someone is stabbing you in the side and twisting.

well, I went for my ultasounds (plural) I had a pelvic one and then a vaginal one(YUK!)
The tech kept asking if I was ever diagnosed with endometriosis, I said no and she wouldn't elaborate on anything else. They said it make take a few days before I would get my results from my doc.
I stopped taking the ketorolac on Sunday when I woke up with broken blood vessel in my eye, I didn't feel very well on those meds and the pain has subsided to a level of annoyance more than anything now. So now I wait......................... Rolling Eyes

Oh man... I hope you feel better!

That stinks that your meds are hindering fertility, also... I'm sure everything will work out in the end.

Good luck with everything. I hope it all works out!

*healthy energy to you*

Hi again Smile
Well I got the test rsults back and I did have a ruptured cyst with another one waiting to go. I have a 6x5x5 cyst on the right side. They are sending me to a gyno at the end of the month to have a look. They might want to drain it. Either way they are going to have a good look around and see whats happening in there. I feel much better now Smile just knowing what caused me sooooooooo much pain.
I still can't take the ovulex as my doc said it may assist in rupturing that other cyst, they don't want that to happen before my gyno appointment.
So thats it for now, it is just more wait and see time for me.

I'm happy for your relief at finding out what was causing the pain, but I'm sorry about the cysts. Does your doctor think that Ovulex caused them? I hope the other one doesn't rupture before the doctors can see it at the end of the month!

It's so hard when you don't know what is happening to your body. This must have brought lots of comfort your way. Hope it all turns out ok. Hang in there girl.

Hi again,
My Doc didn't think the ovulex caused them but... one of the ingredients is a natural estrogen so she thinks it may have contributed to the rupture. Anyway she said the best thing to do was stop taking them until everything is figured out, after that we will discuss what to do about my fertility, she may send me back to the fertility clinic. I was just hoping I could use something natural and not have to go back on the drugs and deal with doctors every month. But whatever it takes to get my very own BFP I am willing to do.
I just got a call to go back to work ahead of schedule, I guess the tigers missed me! so I'm not sure how much time I will have to devote to TTC, maybe its just what I need, a preoccupation for awhile. Rolling Eyes
