Thank you. so referred pain? is that from the cyst pushing over to that side? or ? The gyno did not know what type of cyst exactly. I had only an abdominal us done and was booked for surgery. he said he knows it needs out so just go in and he'll find out then. the tumor is entwined on a stalk with the ovary he said so I am losing that ovary and fallopian tube.I kinda hope it does not affect my sex drive.
