Oh Johanna-- I cannot express how sorry i am to hear that--but you know what, with GOD help you will win. Just trust in him and believe me, he will come thru. I had quite awfull experiences in my life where I just called out to him and yes, he came thru. I use to say this prayer "trust in The Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understandings, in all your ways acknowledge him and HE will make your paths straight. Just trust and have faith in him --call on him as he says --ask and it shall be given, seek and you shall find, knock and the door will be open--Yes CANCER CAN... be beaten and you will win--I am here for you--I am going on my 2nd ultrasound come 19/9/06 --I can still feel the cyst as I am menstuating at the moment(irregular) and the pain is killing me on my right-it always has been my right ovary and that is where the cyst is located--I am so tired of going up and down to dr. and all they say is wait--it will go--In May i was sitting and wathcinf tv when i had then terrible pain in my right side and then the pain went to the uterus and back again to the right--I felt like bringing up, weak. I actaully felt some fluid dripple out of me(like when you water breaks-pregnant)--the pain continue right thru the night--I took some ibuprofen and it subsided--The next day I went to my GP who scheduled a scan and they found the cyst--while doing the ultrasound the radiologist picked up on fluid in my ovary and said that the cyst must have been much bigger and burst and that is what the pain was all about--the dr saidd that since it burst it will eventually dissappear but I know it has not as I can feel it when I walk--it aches--my menstuation is extrememly painfull--I am sitting here at work and I have already take 2 ibuprofens and nothing is helping. I cannot even think of SEX and it is so painfull I scream--I know that it is affecting my marraige as when my husband wants to have sex I make up excuses not to--he knows about the cyst and the pain and is very understanding but you know a man is a man. It has been 1 mnth since we last did anything as I am too scared of the pain. I just wish that they can find out the problem and rectifiy it --I am so scared of ovarian cancer.
Johanna--can you also tell me the symptoms that came with your cyst besides the discomfort, i.e. bloating, irregular period, heavy bleeding etc--
I am here for you.#
