So I've had pain constant for 6 weeks, I'm due for transvaginal scan on Tues, I have most symptoms of cyst/cancer. But the pain actually went away from pelvic area for 3 days (although still in lower back) but today it is back I was hoping it was just going to go away and not come back, but nope. Anyone who's diagnosed with cysts etc, can this happen...pain goes away a few days then comes back? Looks like hot water bottles on the go yet again. I'm just so frustrated and wanting answers which is understandable, but I'd like to here people's experience of pain regardless of the diagnosis please it's driving me crazy

  • Hi Jayej

    no wonder you are fed up and frustrated. Have you been in contact with the pain management team ? Are you taking any pain relief at the moment ? Whilst I was waiting to get started on treatment and having tests I felt like I was left to it and the pain was awful.. I also have pain that jumps around ! It started in my left hip/leg, moved to right leg lower back and then further up my back. It’s been going on for 8 weeks now, luckily I am getting there with the right pain meds and the last radiotherapy has eased my lower back off. Sending best wishes and hope you get sorted soon 

  • Hi, they have gave me coedine and yes that is what has happened with me, it started right side lower abdomen hip back and leg and now it's moving over to the left aswell it's actually causing more pain when I walk. My lower back feels like there's a ball inside just on the right side, I have to see what the scan reveals on Tues but I'm just preparing for the bad news & then at least if it's not as bad I won't be as scared if you get what I mean, mine also travels upto my ribs on the outer right side. It's like cramp mixed with trapped wind and pressure that's how I can explain the pain I get. Sending you lots of good health asap & pain relief

  • Hi I've just had ovarian cyst removed on Friday. Scans showed it on ovary but it was not on ovary it was next to it. I did not have any pain I just had a bit if pressure in pelvic area but not all the time. I had my monitored for a year and a half th3n I decided to get it removed as it grew a little bit it was nearly 6cm but does not look suspicious but they have sent it for testing to be sure. Surgery went well. It depends on how big your is, good luck with your scan hope it goes well. Any further question happy to answer.

  • Thank you for your reply, yeah I'm having lots of pain so quite unsure what's going on, I did have endometriosis removed via laparoscopy 3 years ago so could possibly be this back. I'm 50 in may so I'm very close to menopause, my periods having been hectic but unsure if it's due to what's going on or maybe nearing menopause. The pressure I get is mainly in my right side lower back but can feel like its pushing through to my lower abdomen. I will keep update if I hear anything tomorrow at my scan
