Hi - 39 year old female. History of cyst on ovaries (have had them drained). History of depression also. I started mensturating at an early age and have experienced heavy and long periods most of my life. Have also experienced lower ab.pain, lower pelvic pain. cramping, tingling sensations in stomach area and groin area. Long story short - recent blood test came back normal, recent ct-scan with solution came back clear (with probable - cyst). Schedule for ultrasound tomorrow. Have been suggestion three years ago about a hysterectomy but decided against it. Now - I believe that in order for a quality of life, with no pain I believe I deserve this. My GP is hesitant - however made a referal for me anyway. Am I a candidate for a hysterectomy. My pain in a 9 today (pretty sore). Have I shared enough info that warrents a hysterectomy?
