Seeing ob/gyn next wednesday!From: Cassie (anonymous@obgyn.net)Fri Jan 30 01:12:02 2009
Last Friday I went to the E.R. with pain in my side thinking it was my appendix. They did a CT scan and said there was "stranding" around my appendix and needed it removed via laproscoptomy. While in there the surgeon found a ovarian cyst. The biggest cyst he has ever seen. It's bigger than a baseball. It had ruptured and my appendix was sitting in a pool of fluid and blood from my cyst, the cause of the stranding. The surgeon called an OB/GYN and described the cyst. I have an appointment with the obgyn but the cyst is still there. I believe I could have endometriosis from my symptoms. The doctors said they would probably put me on birth control and I wouldn't need another surgery. Doesn't the surgery have to be performed in order to be diagnosed with endo? I don't have insurance and am not sure if I can handle another surgery, mentally. I am 21 years old and this is starting to wear on me, even though it is early. Hopefully I'm worrying for nothing but a cyst that big couldn't be for no reason! Has anyone had experience with endo at a young age?
