I couldn't bend over to pull my pants on. DH had to dress me while I was screaming in pain in order to go to the hospital.<br /> At the time I had an IUD and was convinced it had perforated my uterus and punctured my bladder. It was so painful. Unlike and period cramps I'd ever had.<br /> Hope your pain subsides. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/input-from-those-that-have-had-cysts-rupturetorse#post-2355626 Fri, 13 Nov 2015 13:15:48 +0000 MaryM 2355626@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I told myself if it wasn't better by a certain time I'd call...and of course the pain went away. I'm going to guess it was AF related. But if it comes back that bad again I might go ahead and call to avoid ending up in the ER over the weekend. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/input-from-those-that-have-had-cysts-rupturetorse#post-2355483 Fri, 13 Nov 2015 11:22:13 +0000 dagret 2355483@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MaryM: I had a cyst that caused my ovary to torsion (twice). Both times it felt like someone was stabbing me in the back with a knife and i was vomiting from the pain. Both times they assumed it was kidney stones and were ready to send me home until they gave me an anti-emetic and I kept throwing up anyway. So they did an ultrasound. And the second time, they did emergency surgery to remove the cyst and 3/4 of an ovary, because the torsion was causing the ovary to die and become gangrenous. </p> <p>I would call your doctor just to be safe. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/input-from-those-that-have-had-cysts-rupturetorse#post-2355383 Fri, 13 Nov 2015 10:36:05 +0000 wrkbrk 2355383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MaryM: It totally could be. But what is the harm in just speaking to his nurse just in case? He may not make you come in ... ? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/input-from-those-that-have-had-cysts-rupturetorse#post-2355380 Fri, 13 Nov 2015 10:35:19 +0000 MaryM 2355380@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wrkbrk: If I had this pain mid cycle...I'd be calling my doctor. It's throwing me off because it's during AF. </p> <p>I usually only have cramps the first day of AF...but I'm wondering since I'm post stillbirth and D&amp;C if maybe it's just because of all that trauma? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/input-from-those-that-have-had-cysts-rupturetorse#post-2355371 Fri, 13 Nov 2015 10:33:56 +0000 wrkbrk 2355371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MaryM: I have not but I had a friend hospitalized for this. I think if it were a cyst bursting you would have no question at all. That said, call your doctor to be safe!! Good luck. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/input-from-those-that-have-had-cysts-rupturetorse#post-2355367 Fri, 13 Nov 2015 10:31:55 +0000 MaryM 2355367@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't know if this is just a really bad postpartum period (it's my first) or if I should call the doctor ASAP. </p> <p>I've had cysts for the last two years. Pretty large ones (7-9 cm). I got one while I was pregnant, but it started to shrink. Last time they checked it was down to 7 cm. </p> <p>I got my first postpartum period Wednesday, and the cramps kept me home and on the postpartum painkillers. It was pretty intense (the cramps radiated down to my knees). </p> <p>They went away yesterday, but on my way to work today they came back pretty intense, and somewhat localized on the side where the cyst was. </p> <p>I'm still bleeding, so the logical part of my brain says it's probably just a bad period. But if you had a cyst burst or torse, did it feel like menstrual cramps? Have you had one burst while you were on your period? </p> <p>I've had cysts "go away"...but if they've burst it's never been bad enough that I considered going to the doctor... </p>
