Scared and unsure

Hi all, this is my first post on here so apologies if I get anything wrong!

I recently had a scan which showed 2 ovarian cysts. One has ruptured and detatched and the other is approx 5/6cm and attached to my right ovary.

I had the Mirena coil fitted in May 2013 as I had spent years on a variety of different contraceptive pils and the Dr's wanted me to choose another method.

I was reffered for a scan as I was in constant pelvic and lower back pain and I was worried that this was linked to the coil. I was constantly bloated too. The lady who scanned me found the cysts and also noted that I have fibroids (although these were noticed in a routine scan with my second child and I do not believe they are a problem)

She said it looks most probable that I have endometriosis and reffered my for further investigations.

I have an appointment this Thursday and I am petrified! I have no clue what to expect and my head is filled with "what if's" and uncertainty.

Any advice / guidance would be massively appreciated.

xx
