Avatar f tn I have had ovarian cysts in the past. I also have gi symptoms including alot of gas, and some pain under my breasts, upper rib cage. I don't have any bloating, or increased abdominal size. I recently had a colonoscopy which was normal. The dr is sending me for a cat scan to check for kidney stones and ovarian cysts. I am very worried this could be ovarian cancer. I have afamily history of colon cancer (father). Am i being irrational, or should I be very worried?
4349241 tn?1358287277 Thank you for your reply, Dr. Also, thank you for taking time to read and share with all of us on this site. I'm doing well, considering. The ache has been reduced in that region, so hopeful it is more stress related. I am; however, keeping a log of symptoms to share with my Dr. I also want to keep track of these things to share with others, and will post after surgery.
Avatar n tn That doesn't sound like something to mess around with.
Avatar f tn Hello all! I am 31 and have history of complex ovarian cysts that have all resolved on their own. Last month I had another cyst that ruptured as well as an ectopic pregnancy. I am almost certain I had another this cycle, aching on left ovary and feeling of pressure on the bladder, now I am having constant discomfort under my right rib cage, almost feels like a gas bubble trapped.
Avatar f tn I am having extreme bloating as if pregnant, sensitivity right above belly button, under rib cage (spleen), left bottom, and sometimes pelvic pain, heavy bleeding the first few days of period, bladder burns sometimes, and general fatigue. When this first started I noticed swelling also on spleen which I could feel it gurgling when I applied pressure to it or gently massaged it. That symptom seems to have gone for now.
Avatar m tn The CA-125 test is not accurate in diagnosing ovarian cancer. If you do not have a predisposition for ovarian cancer then your lifetime risk is less than 2%. You said he didn't seem worried about the ovarian cysts. Is that because they were functional cysts which are part of the normal menstrual cycle? Those can sometimes hang around causing some symtpoms but almost always resolve within 2 cycles.
Avatar n tn Limama - Ovarian cysts are almost always benign / non-cancerous. And most go away on their own in a few months or so, no treatment needed. Unfortunately, when they don't go away and get too large, surgery is typically needed. But you should NOT need to lose your ovary IF you have a surgeon with good cystectomy (cyst removal) skills. We need our ovaries and uterus our whole lives.
Avatar f tn Are you saying your history of ovarian cysts puts you at risk for uterine cancer? Do you have Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and miss a lot of periods? Other than that, I have not heard of ovarian cysts increasing risk of uterine cancer (or ovarian cancer). Have you tried birth control pills to try to prevent the cysts and regulate your cycles?
556467 tn?1225377691 I feel stupid asking this but can ovarian cysts cause severe lower back pain and abdominal cramping even after a partial hysterectomy? A CT scan (to look at liver b/c of pain under right side rib cage and elevated liver enzymes) showed bilateral cysts on both ovaries. I am scheduled to see my Gyn and have a US on Nov. 3rd. The pain is getting worse and I didn't know if I should try to see the Gyn sooner or if this might be something different going on. Any info would be appreciated.
Avatar n tn It could be your cysts causing the bloating and all the pain, but I will say that I had all the symptoms you are having and I ended up having intestinal surgery. I had bloating, shortness of breath, fullness when I tried to eat, I had gained weight, constipated all the time, nausea in the mornings especially. It turns out that I had scarred and twisted intestines that I had to have removed and resectioned. They found that ONLY after I had emergency appendectomy.
Avatar f tn I am still in pain and have had other symptoms occur. I am having blurred vision, pain in my rib cage on the right side, headaches (occasionally migraine), and have felt as though I am buzzed from drinking. The doctor thought I had a thyroid problem and did the test for it, all test came back fine that I had no problem. However, I am still having the problems and the pains from the cysts. The doctor is scheduling me for an MRI this month.
1408770 tn?1283213203 food cravings, and an increased appetite, headaches, dizziness, leg cramps, heartburn, nasal congestion, nose bleeds, rib pain, and indigestion are NOT signs of cysts! With cysts u get a bloated feeling, but the pain, if any, is in ur pelvis! These r however, ALL signs of pregnancy! I myself had no trouble at all with the cysts during pregnancy... if fact, I didn't know they were there!!!
Avatar f tn suggested you do ? Ovarian Cysts and ovarian cancer can cause many similar symptoms. There is absolutely no way to tell for certain unless and until surgery is performed and the path results come back. Having said that, cysts are very very common and 95% benign. The best course of action is to speak with your physician to see what his recommended course of action is. They may possibly suggest removal, but sometimes, they prefer to wait awhile to see if they resolve themselves.
Avatar n tn Have burning pain in private area,freqent urinatin,dull ache beneath rib cage in center...all symptoms lasting 4 months now. I have a fibroid and had a cyst,it went away. Periods have become short (1-2 days) and light,kinda brownish,and sloughy looking skin like? I have been to doc a lot lately and am on neurontin for pain,and detrol. I am concerned abot the silent killer Ovarian cancer...I had endoscopy which was fine, I have had ultrasonds(pelvic and of area that hurts).
Avatar f tn m wondering how this turned out for any of you that had ovarian cysts and chest/rib pains. My 17-yr old started having really bad abdominal pains a couple months ago and at the ER they discovered she had an ovarian cyst on her right side. It flares up each month since during ovulation and then mellows out in between. The ob/gyn had her start a birth control pill but then had her stop it about a month later because of some symptoms.
Avatar f tn she told me it can be cured by medicine and then i took tablets for 6 months.After that I was no pain and no symptoms for only 3 months.Last three weeks ago,I got sharp pain and fever,dizziness. I needed to check with doc.She took scan and told my cyst size is 8 cm.Oh god,cant imagine.Urgently I needed to remove it.You better check with your doc and follow her advice..
Avatar f tn Jennifer, my only symptoms are groin/pelvic pain which is now radiating into the buttocks, and severe gastro pain which comes and goes (pain is under my rib cage, severe burning, like stomach acid). Sometimes the symptoms happen together, sometimes separate. Usually I feel like I have the flu while all of this is going on, and I feel really hot, but with no fever if I take my temp.
Avatar f tn The symptoms you are describing are very indicative of ovarian cysts. Do insist on a transvaginal ultrasound. I hope you can get relief soon. I'm assuming by your nickname that you are Canadian? So am I. Where are you from?
Avatar n tn and it will explain a great deal about ovarian cysts .. The usual course of treatment is to monitor them .. usuall 3-4 mos. to see if they have resolved themselves or grown . In which case there are simple ways to surgically remove them if they are troublesome. By the way, those cysts are really quite small. Try not to worry and check out the "Health Pages" .. (and since you are so recently dx.
