    Ovarian Cyst need some info

    Hello Everyone. Just wanted to see if anyone could maybe explain something to me. I went to the ER in Feb with lower abdominal pain and after x-rays and ct scan they said I had a mass on my right ovary. I went the next day to Gyn who orderd an ultrasound the very next morning. The results were sent directly to him via e-mail. He then showed me the ultrasound pictures and said that I have a cyst and he wanted to go ahead and remove it. He did not tell me what kind of cyst it is but you can definetly see in the middle is a few cluster that he sstates he was alittle concerned about. Sent me for CA-125 which came back at 11.5. And the measurements for the cyst are as follows: 12cm x 5cm x 11.5cm. I also have fibroids on utrus. I am scheduled for surgery on April 23. We are scheduling a Laparoscopy withe removal of Adnexxal structures or possibly a laparotomy. My question is what kind of cyst might I have and as far as the size is what could I compare it to???apple, softball etc. Thank for any info you might be able to give me and sorry post is so long.

    I had a cyst on my right ovary as well. I also had the lap. done. You're not alone in this. You're in my thoughts. As far as the size,etc. I would ask your doc. He's the only one that would know exactly. Hang in there. Take care and hugs. Let us know how surgery goes,k.
    What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.

      Delta,
      Thanks for your reply. I talked to the nurse yesterday and she stated that by the US pictures it looks as if it is a complex cyst, But we will know for sure ince he goes in. I will let you know how things turn out.
      Thank you
