*UPDATE*
Well I had the appointment with the specialist last Friday and I'm booked in fo a laparotomy on Monday the 22nd May to have the cyst removed. Unfortunately it has grown in the last 6 weeks or so - it's about the size of a coconut. The specialist is confident that he can remove the cyst without any damage to the ovary and that I should be able to conceive as there are no other reasons at the moment why I'm not getting pregnant.
I would have updated sooner but I've been a little down the last few days. Because my abdomen is distended and I keep needing to pee, I've had people asking my if I'm pregnant and it's really starting to get to me so I've just been keeping to myself and staying home. I pushed myself out the door this afternoon to wander around a shopping centre just to get out of the house. I think I'm also a little scared because the hospital I have to go to for 3 days isn't really close to home so my family won't just be able to pop in.
