I had a CT yesterday that diagnosed kidney stones (not fun) but it also found an ovarian cyst. Over the last 6 months, my IBS has gone nuts, I'm tired all the time, loss of appetite and a few other symptoms, my gp has been great, trying to figure out what's going on.
Just over a month ago, during a physical exam GP found a pain point on my right side, due to bloods at the time the concern was appendicitis so was sent to the hospital for surgical assessment, they did an pelvic ultrasound and I was told they found nothing. The right sided pelvic pain has continued, its a constant grumble. GP has continued to try and work thing out based on these findings.
Tuesday the kidney stones hit, went to A&E, got pain under control ish, then was back for surgical assessment yesterday (Wednesday). The kidney pain is on my left. To confirm the diagnosis I had a CT, yup kidney stones, but they also found an ovarian cyst on my right ovary. While this might explain the right sided pain, I'm worried that it wasn't picked up on the ultrasound, and that all they are planning to deal with it is another ultrasound in six weeks. No additional bloods. No referral to GYN.
My mum has had bowel cancer and breast cancer so I'm hyper aware of the possibility of cancer.
Am I over reacting in my worry???
