Worried for nothing...ultrasound showed something
I posted a few weeks ago here and just wanted to come back and thank everyone for their kind words and encouragement. My ultrasound came back suggesting adenomyosis and I apparently have a large cyst (slightly smaller than a tennis ball) on one of my ovaries. I'm now waiting to hear from my doctor on when I can get in to talk about it and figure out next steps.
In the meantime, the radiating pain in my legs has gotten so much worse and is affecting me not just when I'm on my period anymore. Does anyone have suggestions that helped ease that pain for you (right now, I'm doing tylenol and heating pad).
While dealing with these symptoms is awful, and I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy, it does feel good to be validated in that there is something wrong and it isn't normal. I'm so sorry that so many of us have anxiety over simply being diagnosed with something because we're too often told our symptoms are normal or we need to lose weight. Best of luck to you all, and thank you again for being so kind in my moment of anxiety <3
