Yes Ive had it for years! I had a Lap 3 yrs ago. I was adiment about them not removing anything unless it was cancerous. I have not had children yet and was scared. After the Lap the doc said he couldnt remove the cyst without taking the ovary. I will be making an appt with gyno today. I really dont want another Lap and I dont want to loose the ovary, but If its necessary this time I will do it. :-(
