> Hi Bryn. I have had recurring abcesses on my left side. I've had 3 surgeries for marsupilization(sp?)and had it surgically drained in the ER. Although I did have the cyst return, it usually drained on it's own until last week when it came back and this seems to be the largest one yet. I was in the ER 2 days ago, and because of my prior surgeries they were afraid to treat me, so I am now waiting until Thursday to see my Doctor. I too have endometriosis, and have had laparoscopy done at least 4 times for that. I'm not sure what my doctor will want to do with me now. It sure is painful and uncomfortable, I've become a very mean person since "the cyst" has returned. It makes me want to be a boy. Hope you are doing better.
