Went to the docs another cyst this time on my right ovarie sent for scan 3.5cm cyst was having mild pain and bloating feeling sick ect haven't had another scan but the doc referred me to gynaecology as the pain had got worse in my back down into my leg and have pain in my kidney area and still no period apart from brown discharge now and again. She examined me prest on my right side I nearly jumped off the bed it hurt so bad done swabs sent me for bloods arranged a scan for next week. Since she. Examinedible me the pain has got worse to the point it hurts when I walk I started bleeding the day after the swabs wasn't too heavy and only lasted a couple of days, on Sat the 27th I got out of bed had this sudden sharp pain in my right side for a boutique a minute I was double over it hurt really bad was OK for a while that afternoon I started to feel sick and really tired lay down started shivering sweating managed to sleep for a couple of hours next day could hardly walk and in pain but manageable went to the docs he thought I had kidney stones sciatica and the cyst since having the pain on the sat I have been bleeding really heavy soaking thro pads and sometimes while walking I get a gush of pee even though I don't need to go I do get this when I cough but never just walking sorry for the long post but it's worrying me thank you in advance for any replies hugs xx

Well, Lotty,

If I was suffering with your symptoms, I would call 911. Let the EMT’s look at you. They can give you instant pain relief and bring you right into A&E, where you can receive all necessary tests.

You could have a kidney stone, or you could have sepsis! Your Cyst could have ruptured or something more sinister could be at work. And if you are bleeding so heavily, you could become anaemic.

Call 911 or take yourself to A&E.

That’s my advice,

Good luck,

Laura

Thanks for your reply Laura I'm gonna try get another appointment to see the doc he said just to wait see what my next scan shows that's on the 15th so not too much longer if I get no joy off him I'll go to A&E I'll update once I know anything xx

I think the heavy bleeding could be uterine fibroids? I did have sciatica a year before my diagnosis but have no way of knowing if there was a connection. Weeing when you cough is quite common. All your symptoms should be followed up but there is no need to think the worst at present. I had a 10 cm malignant cyst with none of these symptoms and I know that benign cysts are very common. Please let us know how you get on.
