I took my daughter to the hospital on Monday for extreme abdominal pain in her lower right abdominal area. The did several test trying to determine the source of the pain. They said her Ultra sound showed some small cysts on her ovaries but this was normal and would not be causing this kind of pain. Blood work, Ct scan and urine test all came back fine. She is experiencing a constant pain in the lower right abdomen with sharp pains that are bearable and bring her to tears. She also has to keep her right leg bent and close to her chest to decrease the pain if she tries to straighten her leg the pain is unbearable. They admitted her to the hospital, did more blood tests, urine test, an CT scan a ultra sound on her gall bladder and still everything came back okay. She was then seen by an OB doctor that said she believed she had Cyst on her ovaries that ruptured. She said once she ate something and could keep a pain pill down she would be able to be released from the hospital. They released her late Tuesday night. It is now Thursday and they pain is still there. She still can not stand upright when she walks she is bent over, she has to have her right leg bent when sitting or laying down, she does not feel like eating, she feel nauseous, dizzy, she still has a constant pain (a level 4 when on pain pills that increase to about a 6 when the pain pills start to wear off) with sharp pains that reach a level of 10 pain.
