Dear So and So

My doc said that they don't remove the cysts, they wait for them to dissipate or rupture. I get them about every 6 months and they always rupture on me--because of the physical activities I do (running, mountain biking). In rare cases there can be serious issues, but 99.9% of the time the only side effect is extreme side pain followed by nausea and cramping for anywhere from 24-48 hours.

Snapdragon, I'd be curious to find out if your doc does remove yours. If you don't mind sharing and you do have it removed, I'd like to find out what is involved as well.

She said she'd only remove it if it continued to grow. I've had two ultrasounds, second one showed it was growing.
