Hi everyone. Yesterday I developed horrible pain on the side where my only ovary is. It started to affect my back and I was in so much pain. It was the middle of the month (ovulation) and I thought that was it, but at 5 am, I finally got out of bed and went to the ER because I was in so much pain.
They immediately suspected Apendicitis. So, I had to drink this stuff and have a Cat Scan with dye. The dye was beyond weird and I am wondering if I am having lingering affects from that.
Anyway, I found out a few things which have me quite upset. I am so tired of finding out new things. I can't take this ride anymore. I just want to get off.
I have an endometrioma...a mass. In the right lower quadrant.
And, I have a large fibroid measuring 6.5 cm X 6.2 X 8.4 cm.
I knew that I had a fibroid but I did not know how big it was.
Does anyone have any recommendations regarding a fibroid? Is progesterone good for a fibroid, or bad? I do not want to have a hysterectomy.
Also, my results came back saying I have lesions on my liver. Is this even normal? Hypodense lesions. They may represent cysts and there is a 14 mm cyst in the left lobe of the liver.
What does that even mean and is it something I should be concerned about? The doctor never even told me.
I am seriously at my wits end. How much more can I have going wrong? I have so many not even symptoms, but problems at this point. Genuine things that are wrong.
If anyone has any info on fibroids, or any of this, please do tell. I have to say, I am not too sure about iodine treatment. Some people do well and some people end up sicker than a dog.
I feel crazy. Between being so hypo and not up to the accurate dose of T3 because I am trying to go slow and just all of this crap, I really feel "off." Sunday was a good day and just like that...I am in the gutter. They gave me dilaudid. I wonder if the dye can also affect one mentally? I just don't know.
