Hi guys, happy Tuesday! :happy:
I was told the results on my transvaginal/pelvic ultrasound that I have a small corpus luteum cyst on my right ovary. Everything else looked good apparently. Ovary size was fine etc. No free fluid. Was also told I most likely have pelvic inflammatory disease that's just taking a while to resolve.
I thought this would be satisfying enough for me but not really. During the wait for the ultrasound I started to develop pressure under my ribs which is especially bad on my right side. I saw a gyn and he told me it could be infection that has ascended upwards (I have been messed around for 3 months on various antibiotics with no proper diagnosis so makes sense I think). Was given more strong antibiotics but it didn't do anything apart from make me feel worse. Shouldn't it have worked :confused:
I've to see the gynaecologist again on the 21st of October but it seems so long away. :neutral: I'm also nervous I might have been misdiagnosed on the ultrasound and my cyst is something a bit more sinister due to my symptoms. I have been told ultrasounds can miss certain things? I know CA-125 isn't really reliable but mines was 17.7. I am also 27 with no kids. Blood tests have been fine. Took a FIT test due to the gut issues and that was normal too. Calprotectin normal. I don't understand!
Also corpus luteum cysts look scary?!! My progestin implant clearly doesn't help with preventing cysts... My gyn told me it probably even caused it! :laugh: guess it's time for me to switch up contraception. Has anyone else been through similar Xx
