Hi...I was having this pain...on my right side though, and it was so
intense that they kept sending me to the emergency room thinking I had
appendicitis...three times in a row (about 3-4 months apart) this
happened, and they NEVER found anything wrong and sent me home. A
pelvic sonogram also turned up nothing...except "a series of lesions
that were consistent with someone in my age group." I was told at the
time it was nothing to worry about -- that was three years ago and now
I'm pretty certain that it was PCOS then, but I was just diagnosed. So
I guess that was a long-winded way of saying yes, I had pain without a
diagnosed cyst to accompany it.
