Q: Pelvic Pain

Hi,
I'm in so much pain and the pain meds don't work. I had a cyst on my ovary that had burst in November and I'm still in pain. The pain goes down my leg(feels like I'm starting my period). It was just on my right side,now it's both sides. I went and saw my gyn and he said to call in 6 weeks(now 4 weeks)and he will do a laparoscopy. I was also told that I have scar tissue on my right side. Is there any pain meds besides ibuprofin that would work? Somedays I just want to stay in bed(curled up)because of the pain and it also makes me sick to my stomache. It's been going on since the middle part of October and it's January now. Any advice will be helpful,thank you!! I had a tubal done april of 2006 and for the past 2 years my cycles were every 23-25 days. Now they're all over the place. Before I got pregnant with my last child,my cycles were regular 28 days and 2-3 days long. Now they went from Oct.15th,Nov.9th,and Dec.8th. and they're 5-7 days long(unusual for me).

Jo,
Thank you for your response. This pain is unbearable and I think the docs are tired of me,lol. My doctor has done several tests and they were all normal except the CT scan that showed a 3.5cm cyst on my right ovary in the beginning of November. December 16th I had an ultrasound done and they could not find anything. When I saw the gyn on Dec.26th,he said he was stumped because they couldn't find anything except there was some fluid around my right ovary. He did a pelvic exam and it hurt soo bad. He said it was tender in that spot. I bled alot after the exam(bright red with some very small clots). I've been bleeding alot and passing big clots during my cycle and it's so painful. I just hope I can get some answers soon.

Hi,
I got my pap smear results and they're normal. Since the doctor said I have scar tissue,can that cause the pain I'm in? I still keep thinking that it's endo,because of all the symproms I'm having. Thank you!

Confused
I have no clue whats going on. I started spotting heavy yesterday(5th)and I'm really heavy today. Horrible cramps,and lots of clots(some are flesh). My cycle's have been all over the place. From Oct.15th,Nov.9th,Dec.8th,and now Jan.5th. They have been irregular since my tubal,could that have anything to do with it? Sorry for all the questions,I'm just really concerned and confused as to whats going on. We're on a flood watch/warning now..I hope we don't get flooded again. We had a flood in dec. of 2007 and had lost 80-90% of our belongings(2ft. of water). It's suppose to be about the same or worse. I will keep everyone updated!!
