I had another ultrasound yesterday before going to the hospital for lithotripsy. The cyst has shrunk even more. The tv ultrasound was extremely painful. The doc said it was because the ovary was traumatized from the cyst and trying to heal itself. She said that there's no need to remove the ovary because of the cyst, but that I could have it removed to alleviate pain. Because of my increased risk of cancers due to the chemical exposure, I may want to have them out at the time of menopause. I feel certain I will do that at least. I'm not sure if I want to have the left ovary out now. I don't want to go a whole school year hurting and feeling horrible, but who knows whether or not that would be the case. If I'm going to do it, I need to schedule it asap while I'm out for summer. I don't know what the cons of having it out would be other than just having to have surgery. Any thoughts?
Blessings to everyone!
