Hi everyone – My mom called me yesterday because she was in the hospital and I am extremely worried. For about 2 weeks she thought she had a UTI because of pain while peeing and not being able to empty.. she doesn’t have insurance so she bought store bought UTI medicine that didnt help – the pain got so bad she went to the ER, had blood tests which came back fine – but declined a CT scan and US because of the insurance issue… went back yesterday morning with extreme pain again – did CT and US which showed a 9 cm midline cyst (the size of a grapefruit) – It is so big that it was blocking her urethra which is why she couldn’t pee and felt she had a UTI- she sees the surgeon tomorrow and OB and they are going to do a biopsy.. but I am just soooo worried and would feel better if any with experience with this could give me some straight forward facts if anyone knows anything about ovarian cancer. She had a hystrectomy about 20 years ago but they just removed her uterus and not her ovaries. Thanks.
