Default Finally some answers....

Well I got some answers... My ultrasound showed that I have a hemorrhagic cyst on my left ovary. It has been over a week since then so they did another one today to see how it is doing because the last few days my pain has gotten worse. I will keep you all updated. My doctor said I should here back today.

I've had cysts on on ovaries and they hurt like hell. They can remove them, but be sure to check with gynecologist and gp and pm and neurologist first. Make sure they all know about your rsd and the possiblity of spread of rsd with surgery.
I'm so glad they found out what may be causing your pain. Hope you get better soon.

Hi Angelina, I hope your day was better today. I have twice had cysts on an ovary and I was doubled over in pain and that was... 30 years ago, about 20 years before the RSD. My mom was a post-op nurse and she thought I was having an appendix attack with the first one. Both of mine ended up bursting bursting before they could do anything beyond diagnosing. It's gross to think about, but it relieved my pain. Hopefully they will be able to resolve this for you really soon so you can get back to being a mom. Soft hugs to you tonight, and hopefully your pain is easing.
Sylvia

I'm glad they found out what was wrong for you Angelina, but I'm sorry you're looking at a surgical solution - although I'm betting that's still preferable to it being the CRPS and having to face that pain forever. With a good surgical team in close contact with a decent pain doc, and nurses who are in the CRPS loop too, you should come through well.

Take care chick, a few more tough times yet, but at least you know what this is now, and hopefully they can treat it quickly for you.

Dear Angelina,
My heart goes out to you! I finally caught up with reading about this horrible ordeal you've been through!

I'm glad they found out what is wrong. Please make sure they klnow to manage your RSD before and during the surgery. Take plenty of Vitamin C before and after as well.

Praying for you!
