Another question

[fungirl1011]

Hi Ladies!!  I hope you all are having a great Friday!!  Ok, I have another question for you (you would think after having so many cysts I would know the answer lol).  As you all know, I have been having terrible pain due to my cyst.  I have not had a ct done since December (they can not see it by doing a tvus due to where the remenant is located and because of all of the staples that I have) and at the time the cyst was 4.5 cm.  I have no doubt that by now it is much larger than that now.  For my question......Is it possible for my cyst to be so large that it feels like my back is going to go out?  I asked my pcp nurse and she said YES it happens all the time.  With my other cysts, I had siatica (sp?) pain as the ovary was pushing on that nerve.  Has anyone else experienced this?  If so what did you do?  For now I am just going to take the pain meds that I finally got and see what happens.  Thanks Ladies!!

Hugs,
Kasie

My cyst caused me a lot of back pain too.  I took the meds and visited my massage therapist.  She really helped and also got rid of some adhesion pain I was having from previous surgeries.  Good luck!

Kasie,
  When you have a cyst or mass either one, when you begin having pain that usually means that it is pressing against another organ somewhere or even possibly more than one, pushing things all out of wack in there. As you know I was dx with ovarian cancer, but before they found it,I was having abdominal pain and terrible lower back pain both.
