Hi all, 

This is the first time I've ever posted on anything like this but I'm after some reassurance or just some feedback from people who have experience similar?? 

I am 31 years old and have been experiencing lower left abdominal pain and lower left back pain for almost 2 years. As well as this I have recently been feeling full quickly resulting in me not finishing my meals and the pain from my abdomen has travelled down my left hip. I've been back and forth to the drs regarding this more times than I can count! Each time I've been fobbed off until 2 weeks ago when I demanded they referred me for an mri of my abdomen and pelvis. 

I called the GP on Monday to be told over the phone by a receptionist that they discovered cysts on my ovaries and wanted to refer me for an internal ultrasound. I asked if they were definitely just cysts and all she could tell me was that is what the further tests are for. I have this booked for Tuesday but I am going out of my mind with worry. Everything I've read online says that you can tell a cancerous cyst from a normal one on an mri so I don't understand what the ultrasound is for? I've also read that cysts don't cause you pain like this unless cancerous?? Can anybody share any experiences with me that may put my mind at ease?? 

Thanks guys x
