Ovarian or paratubal cyst

Hi, I have small problem .I had appendicitis surgery and doctors also found 10 cm cyst they didn't remove ( apparently I didn't sign papers, but I don't refuse to sign anything).they said I have to come back after 4 months for surgery.but after 3 months  my scan showed that cyst get smaller , 7x6cm, so doctor got surprised why I'm talking about surgery.

I asked to send hospital papers to me . there is wroten than I got tumor markers test which is fine .but also is says that its PROBABLY paratubal cyst or ovarian. 

I don't know what to do because it's almost 7 months when  I have cyst which was shrinking from 10 to 7 cm but now for 4 months its same size, 7cm.

Maybe I just panicked but I read online that bigger than 5cm cyst should be remove.it can rupture twist 

Any advice?

    I'm sorry to hear that you've some continued concerns about the cyst that was found during your surgery. 

    As you're still feeling worried I'd suggest getting in touch with your GP in the first instance who hopefully will be able to offer you some reassurance or get in touch with the Consultant if necessary. 

    I do hope that things improve soon. 

    Best wishes,
