I have a large ovarian cyst on my right side I NEED SOME ADVISE?

Basically I only found out about this mid October of 08. They discovered it by a simple ultra sound. It’s quite large. I’ve been booked in for surgery on the 14 Jan but am worried that I haven’t been given any other treatment options before surgery. Has anyone out there decided not to have surgery, but choose another treatment option to see if it will shrink?

I don’t know of any other options besides surgery. If the cyst ruptures it is VERY painful. You don’t want that to happen.

    I had a huge one on my ovary once and i didn’t have anything done about it and when it ruptured i couldn’t breath i couldn’t walk, I was curled up in the fetal position on the kitchen floor… I hope it stays until you have surgery… good luck!

    There are no alternative therapies.
    Especially if its very large.
