Last night, while I was sleeping, I was woken up by this painful cramp that radiated from my rt ovary (where I OV from this month) to my uterus.
It was going on for about 5-10 minutes, and then I had the urge to go to the bathroom. It hurt to put any pressure to push the BM out... but it eventually came out on it's own. The painful cramp went away, but I am still tender. Any thoughts on this? I don't want to read too much into it, I guess... but this was a new sensation for me.
Thanks for your input,

The next day I woke up and was in so much pain that I called them again, described the pain and they immediately sent me to the ER. At the hospital they did more blood work, about a billion u/s and my OB came to the hospital to check on me as well. He happens to be the chief at the hospital so when they knew that I was his patient they called him right away.
Turns out my cyst caused some free floating fluid and internal bleeding. The fluid was attacking my appendix and gallbladder and that was why I was in so much pain. There was nothing they could do to help me except put me on pain killers and have me wait it out. It took about 3 more days before I felt better again.
It hurt a lot but in the end I was fine. Good luck and if you are in a lot of pain I say go and get checked out right away. I friend of mine had the exact same thing happen 1 week after me and they had to take out her appendix from the free floating fluid. If yours gets to that point you will know. The pain just gets to intense to just ignore it. Good luck and I'll be thinking of you!
