Hi I am a 57 yr old lady . I have been having left sided abdo pain and a postmenopausal bleed. I have had a ultrasound scan which observed a 5cm cyst with a mass. I have now had a CT scan which the consultant has reported on. He said the cyst is unusual as it has a soft side and hard side and now wants an MRI any ideas x

    It's always a worrying time waiting for tests and results as many of our members here on the forum have found out but chatting to others can help so now that I've replied I'm sure you'll receive some words of support and advice soon.

    Although the doctor has said the cyst is unusual, everyone here on the forum will have their fingers crossed that the MRI will show that it isn't anything sinister.

    All the best,
