I have some concerning symptoms but i'm not sure what I should do about it...
I should mention that I had been on the pill for about 8yrs but have been off the pill for about 2 yrs right now. I am 25yrs old, 5 foot & 8 inches, and 145lbs. I have hpv and had cryo done about 3 yrs ago. I have regular paps and they have all come back normal since my cryo.
I have had painful intercourse> it feels like a bad bruise inside my abd region. But this only happened a few times it doesn't happen every time.
I have had pain in my ovaries. Usually it feels like pressure that comes on strong and gets worse but then goes away. Sometimes when I stand up i'll get a sharp pain in my ovaries and it also happens sometimes if I cough. Sometimes I get an odd pressure/pain feeling in my ovaries and i'll feel the need to stretch out my lower abd. It then goes away.All of this didn't really concern me too much except that one evening the pain was so bad that it scared me and I was even going to go to the er. I ended up taking a gravol and going to bed instead. This is happening more and more lately. This is not gas and it is not menstrual cramps.
I have been feeling very nauseous and bloated lately and my abd looks like it's swollen at times. Last month I was late getting my period for like 2 wks. I started waking up in the middle of the night feeling like I was going to vomit. I thought that I was pregnant but that was not the case. Lately I have had indigestion quite frequently-which is unusual for me.
The more I research this online the more I think I should go to the doc but then the symptoms go away and I feel great. So I did't end up going. Plus I had a pelvic exam done during my last pap in oct'06 and everything went fine.
I am not sure what to do about this. As these symptoms could just be nothing. I mean maybe i'm just reading too much into things? Or should I just get it checked anyway? The thing is, is that I hate going to the doc- I had been sexually assulted in the past and every time I go to the doc for woman problems it remindes me of it. I end up crying my eyes out and making a fool of myself. I don't want to be labeled as the crying girl that thinks she has medical issues when she don't. I know this sounds stupid but that's how I feel.Embarassed I don't want to go only to find out that this is nothing and that I have only wasted my doc's time....???What should I do?
Has anyone else had these symptoms? What did you do? Do you think these symptoms are just random and unrelated?
Please help! Sad
