It is normal to be scared when you think something might be wrong and it could be something serious.

Your doctors are doing the right thing by checking and if it was cancer then the sooner you know the better xx

What Lundy saiid is true. Knowledge is power even when you’d rather not know. The sooner the complex cyst is checked out the better. Ovarian cancer at stage 1 is 90% curable but most of us don’t get diagnosed until stages three or four. Fingers crossed for you!

I understand how you feel, Beauty, I went to a urologist thinking I had a prolapsed bladder because I sometimes had to get up ten times at night to urinate. He did an ultrasound and I was shocked to learn that I have a large complex ovarian cyst. He told me to see my gynecologist who did a transvaginal ultrasound and discovered three cysts and two fibroids. I was so stunned. I have had a lot of abdominal pain and discomfort. I imagined that my stomach and colon and uterus were filed with cancer. Then I had a pelvic/abdominal CT scan and learned that stomach colon pancreas and other areas look okay. OC is suspected and so I will have full hysterectomy and removal of omentum. It is not what I hoped for, but it is still not as bad as I had imagined. Do your best yo stay upbeat. When I feel scared, I have myself a little cry. It seems to release the emotional pressure and then I feel better. It’s easy to imagine the very worst early on before we know very much. I’m very good at that. But I am getting better at focusing on every positive tidbit of information I receive. I hope you receive good news.
