My doctor told me i had sciatica in my left leg, and that it would go after 3 or 4 weeks on its own, but it hasnt, and im starting to think my symptoms are maybe that of a cyst/cysts on my ovary. I had the Depo-Provera contraception injection in january, and since that, my symptoms have become alot worse, and ive suffered with persistent bloating and weight gain. But im still unsure as this could be water retention due to the injection.
It is possible that this pain is from something else or perhaps a fibroid or an ovarian remnant stayed on the left and now has a cyst. Yes, the symptoms for cysts and ovarian cancer can be quite similar.
The CA 125 is quite unreliable, especially in pre-menopausal women. However, it can give some insight but definitely not a true indicator. I think it is time to get a second opinion and insist they rule out ovarian cancer.
What you are describing can be symptoms for many things. These can include ovarian cysts and ovarian cancer. Since it is pretty rare for women your age to have ovarian cancer and since more than 95% of all cysts are benign let's asssume you are dealing with a cyst. I had all the symptoms you are describing and had benign cysts. You should check out the health pages (top right) and look at the listing for types of cysts and symptoms.
is it comman for a 17 year old to have cancer. I have been having bad leg, pelvic, and lower back pain. they told me that i have ovarian cysts but i didn't know if it might be cancer because ovarian cancer is hard to ditect??? IF YOU COULD HELP THAT WOULD BE GREAT. Im just worried because i dont want it to be bad...
I try to pull my leg up so I can lay in the fetal position, but the pain on my left side radiates down my leg and i literally have to pull my leg up with my arms. The pain subsides at times then it will act up again for no reason. It is distressing to me and I don't know what else to do as far as stressing to my doctors that I do have this pain and they don't seem to be concerned. What type of test can you reccomment I get to rule out cancer.
My doctor used an ultra-sound to check the placement of the IUD and all was fine. However, she discovered that I had multiple cysts. She perscribed pain medications, and sent me on my way. My question is how long are they supposed to last? It is now mid-May and I still get the same severe pain. It shoots down my left leg, (sometimes the right) and across my back. It of course is in my lower abs, and makes me completely useless. It's daily.
First of all, a little background information... I've just been told I have an ovarian cyst. I've seen my regular doctor twice complaining of abdominal pain, back pain, constipation, pain with sex, and changes in my periods (among other things that led us to investigate my thyroid). After thyroid levels came back within normal range twice, he presumed my symptoms stress or diet related.
I now experience lower back and leg pain - most severely mid month! Along with other symptoms, bloating, dizziness, groin pain both sides, constipation and diahr, fatigue. Just gettting up from sitting can be extremely painful and it takes a minute or so to get my mobility back. I have recorded what symptoms I experience each month and there IS a repeat pattern. 2 months ago I had a diag laparosocpy performed.
Some of your symptoms could be caused by ovarian cysts. Thankfully though MOST ovarian cysts are benign. If you do not have a family history or predisposition for ovarian cancer then your risk is LESS THAN 2%.
I developed an ovarian cyst at age 49. My gynecologist rushed me into surgery and should have removed just the cyst (cystectomy) since my frozen section came back benign. Instead, he removed all of my sex organs.
I know when my sciatic nerve is being irritated and can feel that pain down the entire backside of my leg. However, I am almost certain the aching pain that causes my whole leg to hurt is not caused by my sciatic nerve. On my last visit to the pain clinic, the doctor more or less suggested that I will have to live with this pain, it is coming from my back, and there's not much he can do for it. Then I suggested maybe I should have a CT scan of my hip or my pelvis.
Good day- Please help- im at my wits end. Im a 37 yr old female with right sided abdominal pain for the last 7 years. it is in my waist and refers down into my groin ; pubic area and when its really bad into my leg. I have had several lap scopes for queried "female" problems- from ovarian cysts to endometriosis- they are all clear. I have had my appendix out many years ago. I have had abdominal CT scan and that showed a hiatus hernia but nothing else.
I recently had an mri for leg/hip pain which ended up being an enflamed tendon. The mri also reveals two small cysts in the "left adnexa" measuring 1 cm in size. The RN at the orthopedic office said it was my ovary. Should I be concerned about this and see my gynocologist? I had a hysterectomy approximately 15 years ago and am 58 years old.
