Painful Complex Ovarian Cyst

Hi ! I am a breast cancer survivor (3 years) I had a complex ovarian cyst - the right ovary where the cyst is was 3 times the size of my left ovary. Fast forward three years it is still there! I went for an Ultrasound on the 22nd of April 2019 . Now waiting for MRI to be scheduled. Last night I had severe pain in my ovary and could barely move. Has anyone else experienced a ..painful omplex cyst that has lasted 3 years ? Is pain related to Ovarian cancer ? 

  • Welcome to the forum Carjeanne although I'm sorry for the reason you've joined us.

    There have been quite a few discussions popping up about ovarian cysts lately so do be sure to have a look and join in on any you find using the 'search forum' option in the blue bar above.

    If the pain you experienced continues to persist or becomes unmanageable do be sure to let your doctor or medical team know as they may be able to give you something to manage it.

    I hope you don't have too long to wait for your MRI and that the results for your MRI and ultrasound bring good news when they come through.

    All the best,
