Menopausal. Pelvic Area Pain, Tailbone Pain, Fibroid And Cyst In Ovary. Blood Test, Ultrasound Done. How Can I Reduce Pain?

Hi, I've been experiencing tail bone pain and pelvic pains so went to my gp. I had a blood test which came back with a CA125 reading of 68 so my gp arranged an ultrasound scan the result of which fibroids and a cyst on my left ovary of 8cm were detected. I have health cover so went to see a consultant who has advised either removal of the cyst and ovary or removal of both ovaries, cyst and my uterus. I'm 51 and I'm going through the menapause. My health otherwise is good. I'm a keen runner and cyclist so very active, slim 5' 4" and weigh 53kg, don't smoke eat reasonably healthily. My gp tested my sugar levels and cholesterol both of which were fine.

Hello,
Multiple fibroids and ovarian cyst bigger than 8 cm do require surgical removal otherwise your pain and other symptoms shall keep on bothering you.
I Think the best would be to get your ovary with cyst and uterus removed.
However your doctor should have the last word regarding the final plan of surgery.
Thanks
