Yes, I know the pain all too well.

Yep, they had me go through a CAT scan and an ultrasound looking for kidney stones and appendicitis...the ultrasounds showed the cyst. I have a follow up appointment tomorrow. Yeah, my poor newly wed husband was terrified! I was so sad that our first ultrasound together was not for a baby! Haha. Things are looking up though. :-)

A friend of mine in HS had a pretty severe one. She was told that if she could get through that pain, child birth would seem like nothing. So with that, you are in my thoughts for a speedy recovery, lol.

Haha! It must have been a male doctor who told her that! Just like the one who told me that labor pains weren't any worse than gas pains and I believed him, until I went through labor.

Childbirth pain beats ovarian cyst pain--take it from a veteran of both, although both are horrific. It's just that you can get an epidural for labor.
