Had CT Guided Biopsy Of My Omentum. Can I Have An Internal Bleed From It? Why Is There Pain Above Pelvic Bone?

If an experienced radiologist had done the biopsy guided under CT scan there would be a rare chance to puncture any blood vessel. Hence there may not be any bleed because of the biospy.
It would have been good if you have uploaded the details of the procedure done as a line about omental biopsy is too short information to comment on.
I am happy that the risky possibilities are ruled out like that of the infection, gangrene of the bowel. Radiographer ruled out the later and clear blood tests ruled out the former.
Sometimes there can be re accumulation of the fluid in the cyst which can feel heavy for the person carrying it. The second possibility is liquification of the pad of fat after a procedure. Omentum is loaded with heavy fat it can give you a feel of a jelly. However it is well contained within the peritoneal wall hence does not seep through.
I agree with your doctor that this subsides on their own and not a major concern for a physician. Your main concentration should be on the biopsy report and the action plan on the increased CA 125 markers. Was it labelled a simple ovarian cyst?. The fluid is absorbed by itself by the peritoneum and then the pain subsided on itself.
