After experiencing right side pain on and off for weeks I went for an ultrasound and they identified a 5cm cyst in my abdomen. A follow up with the GP confirmed that I've been referred for an urgent CT scan but until then they can't give me any info at all, not even any idea what it could be. Meanwhile I'm having a non stop anxiety attack!!! I'm worrying so much about what it might be but more importantly what could happen while I'm waiting for the 'urgent' scan (I've been told it could still be a few weeks). I have a fever and some pain today and now I'm completely panicking that I have an infection!!! I guess I'm looking any experience of a cyst in the abdomen and abdominal CT scans in general - not sure how I'm going to manage for the next few weeks!
