Well what a fab Saturday I had. Had severe lower right groin pain throughout the day Saturday and in the end called 111. I got an appointment to see the out of hours gp at 11.50pm. Went there and he thought I might have appendicitis so I was sent up to a ward and admitted. Had bloods done, chest and abdomen Xrays and was examined by a surgeon who ruled out appendicitis and referred me to a gynae doctor. After being prodded and poked they sent me home yesterday with Codeine phosphate and have referred me for an urgent scan which will be in the next 2 weeks, then I have my follow up gynae appointment 2nd June after my laparoscopy in February. The discharge letter says,

R/o ovarian cyst accident but clinically not ovarian torsion. Can anyone explain to me what this means, because I'm still not clear on what happened. Sorry for the long post x x

Hi hun, thank you for the info. They sent me home with strong painkillers and although I'm still in pain it's not that horrible ripping pain all the time. Yes I have endometriosis, I had 2 patches removed, a right sided paratubal cyst and bowel was attached to adhesions. Waiting for a scan now and then my follow up with gynae at the beginning of June. I will read your posts, thank you x x
