Question about symptoms

hello, I’ve been having pain in my pelvic area since September, with irregular bleeding, pain during and after intercourse with bleeding (clots) and I lost around 5kg within within around 2/3months due to no appetite! I suffered a loss in my family during the summer and was grieving heavily so put all the symptoms down to not taking care of my self  but eventually the pain got so bad that it started to travel down my legs so I went to my go! I also started to get very bloated most of the day which was Also painful! The bleeding Is now more a gooey pink (like a show before giving birth) .I went to my go early December and she seemed casual and wanted to send me to have a scan to check for my mirena coil because she couldnt  see the strings! I was examined in the emergency room of the hospital and the dr was happy she found the strings and that was that! My gp also sent me for an ultrasound and the results came back ( after me chasing them) and said I have a 6cm cyst on my left ovary! I want to accept this and say great but I’m lying in bed in agaony and my stomach is so bloated (all the time) another mum asked if I was pregnant today( I look about 6months pregnant) 

sorry for the long post but my gp wants to see my Wednesday to examine me again and organize some kind of report or letter to send me to hospital to see if I Wednesday to have the cyst drained or removed! I’m worried because I’m in Ireland and right now there is a nurses strike and a planned gp strike and im not 100% confident of the result of it just being a cyst! Also I don’t want to seem like I’m overreacting when I’m not a doctor  and can’t read A scan and diagnose!

 

my question would do most my constant symptoms seem like they could just match a cyst or should I seek a second opinion or ask for more tests? 

Also should add these are my ongoing  symptoms

coantsnt bloatin that won’t go away , irregular bleeding, heartburn at night (not every night), pain in pelvis and now legs, no appetite , constantly needing to pee and feeling like I have a uti but nothing showing up ( I’ve stopped drinking drinkjng water it’s gotten so bad) and feeling like crap 

  • Hi there ..

    Oh my your getting really overwhelmed at the mo .. if I were you I'd call your G P s surgery and ask for an update as to the strike your facing , and how you will be effected ... you could always take a trip back to A and E and tell them what you've said here .. it's deff worth persisting as it's your health and it's effecting your life with so many symptoms ... 

    Good luck ... let us know how you go ...  Chrissie x
