Hello,
I went to my doctor for severe pain in my lower left side. After having an abdominal ultrasound done we found out the it's a cyst on my left ovary (5cm). I waited a week and called the doc back because of severe pain, and she made me a doc's appt @ a woman's clinic. They told me to wait until June 21st and have another ultrasound done, and we'll go from there. The pain is tollerable, but still far from gone. I'm still taking the 800mg ibeprophen they perscribed every 6 hrs. They told me that the bloating is to be expected in my stomach, but what about all of the swelling in my face and hands and knees and ankles? I figured that the Ibeprophen would stop the swelling or at least make it minimal. My ankles are the size of a baseball, and I'm a petite 26 year old.
