i'm supposed to be going in for a tv ultrasound Monday to check for ovarian cysts, however what I have been experienced is pain in my abdomen ( made worse with pressure) as well as pains up my sides all the way to my ribs,not just just back pain. Is that normal for the symptoms? I didn't have pain during my menstruation but I do have pain every other day of the month, not just intermittently. Is it more likely that I have something else? I'm becoming exasperated I haven't been able to do much of anything besides sit or lie down in the house for well over a month and a half.
