    Hey

    well i went for a scan yesterday and i have a cyst on my right ovary, he said its a good size ( 11.3) i dont know if thats in cm or not he just said 11.3 everything else he was measuring was in cm so i dont know?? he also said that there is a lot of pcos in my ovaries, well actually left one as he couldnt see the right one cos of the cyst. i have know for yrs that i have pcos and have had hundreds of scans but yesterday was the first time i have seen that many at once in the one ovary.

    i go back to doctor wednesday to have a talk.

    i am still in a lot of discomfort and i have had the worse leg aches and my lower back is killing me? i was given penedine forte to help with the pain but today with my legs and back it hasnt seemed to help??

    i am sick of feeling sore, i havent been feeling right since i ovulated and my nipples just havent let up. my boobs arent sore or anything just my damn nipples ( driving my crazy) the moment i take my bra off it makes me want to cry
    i dont know why there sore? stupid things

    anyway i just thought i would let you all know how things went and just want to say thanks for all your replies

    take care

    M2C,

    The measurement 11.3 would definitely have been centimetres. And that is definitely a fair-sized cyst, your poor love

    I've had a 7cm cyst before that didn't cause me any pain, but that's much smaller than 11cm! The PCOS that was seen on your scan could also definitely be causing you pain also, and the side effects like v.sore BB and back/leg aches, especially if it's more extensive that previously seen.

    I hope your appointment with the doc goes well, hang in there hun :hugs: Try drinking lots of water - it's your body's best natural defense against pain, and anything that helps you with your pain levels at the moment is useful.

    Take care, lots of hugs to you

    Miss C

    thanks for your reply miss c

    still feel very much the same as yesterday, my legs and back are still aching and i am feeling very full down there, my ovaries feel heavy and sore and now on top of all of this i have diahrea (sp) everytime i go to the toilet its very painful?? i am totally over it. i am a bit worried as i am due for af in 3 days and its usually painful anyway but i am worried its going to be alot more worse cos of everything else thats going on down there and we are moving house this weekend so its going to be very interesting seeing me help lift our fridge down 14 stairs when it hurts just to walk?

    i am seeing the doc on thursday so hopefully he will be able to help sort things out

    thanks again for you reply

    take care.

    I just thought of another thing M2C, since you mentioned diaorrhea also, and the heaviness, and I didn't realise that you've had mild endo (in your signature - don't know how I missed it! )

    Make sure you ask your doc whether your endo could be getting worse - it's not always able to be seen on a ultrasound (actually, not usually) and if it has extended to your ovaries, and even to your bowel it could be what's giving you diaorrhea and the extreme pain in the general area. Especially if your a few days away from AF and your symptoms have happened after O, when your endometrial tissue is at its thickest. It could also explain your other side effects.

    Good Luck, hun. Let us know how the doc's appointment goes. Will be thinking of you.

    :hugs:
