Dear darcel,

i'm sorry, it must be very unsettling for you not to know what is going on. Waiting on a diagnosis can be quite upsetting. I can only suggest that the reason your doctor is so hesitant to be more specific is because fluid in the pelvic area can be caused by a whole range of different things, and for him/her to guess at this stage without doing a catscan would be quite unprofessional of them. Try to be patient and relax a bit, fluid in the pelvis is not life threatning, just very uncomfortable.

Good luck...

I have the same thing, It hurts doesnt it!? I also have sciatica..which doesnt help.
Im being sent to a ob gyn..and they think it could be endometriosis or PCOS... sometimes easily dealt with sometimes not. Im keeping myself optimistic... Hope all the best for you even though its been 5 years Lol♥

I have been told that the fluid is from ruptured cysts by my gynecologist, or it could be because I do alot of cardio running etc. ?? By the RN at the ER.
I went to the ER yesterday beacuse the pain in my abdomen (lower right side) & lower
back/tailbone was debilitating. I believe I also have sciatic issues. The pain and open ended answers are frustrating. I've had Ct's, pelvic & transvag ultrasound, bloodtests, cultures... and they just find fluid....I cannot believe the pain!

Hi, If anyone has experienced this please help I have the most extreme pelvic pain I just want to cry have had it for 6 weeks have been to 3 Doctors 2 men and one women the two males told me I was fine they did blood tests and checked me for tumor markers did swabs and pap smears and all came back fine now tried lady doctor and she has sent me for ultra sound and came back with a thickened uterus and small cyst on left ovarie has told me she does not think anything sinister is wrong but Im so unhappy and sore she is sending me for more blood on Monday and Hormone checks and then back for repeat ultrasound 5 days after starting period. The pain seems to be worst mostlly in the late afternnoon early evening does anyone know whats going on its affecting legs, back and my mind now as the 2 male doctors made me think I was imaging it . Please help.

I am in horrible pain in my pelvic area and my back. I had an ultrasound and they found fluid in my pelvic area. They stated that a cyst had burst and that is what is causing the severe pain. Has anyone experienced the pain in their back as well as their pelvic area? Of course, I have convinced myself that something is wrong with my kidneys but the doctors state it is from my burst cyst.

I just found out yesterday that I too have fluid in my lower left pelvic area. It showed up after a CT scan. Now Dr is sending me for an MRI. It appears from these posts that I am lucky in that I don't have pain. Am I reading correctly that most of you are being told it is related to cysts?

I too have been told that I have fluid in my pelvic area. The blood tests show that my platelets are very low thus indicative that I'm probably fighting an infection. I have gone through ultra sound CT scan and more blood tests. It all began about 4 weeks ago the bloating and pain in the abdomen. Pain is not as bad as other readers, but none the less quite unnerving. I have scheduled an appointment with my Gbyn as instructed. Let's hope we all get better.

I also have pain in right kidney area and it comes around the front very very painful and fluid in my pelvic area that they found in a CT looking for kidney stones I have an ultrasound comming up soon, don't know the cause, they say maybe cyst have burst, I have female issues since birth of my daughter in 2005, test after test and so on, very upset no one knows whats wrong.
