One-sided cramping
Okay friends, please help me feel better....
I have a history of large cysts on my left ovary - they've never burst, they just get really big and then slowly deflate over a couple months.
I'm also severely constipated right now, but still....every time I cough or sneeze or bend down to pick something up etc, my left side cramps SO HARD. It's got me a little worried....I'm 5wks today.
I'm also a fertility clinic patient...meaning they checked my blood levels last week and I'm going in again tomorrow, just to the lab, to check my levels again. They don't usually see patients for an exam/ultrasound until 6wks. I can call my nurse tomorrow morning and see if they want me to come in for an earlier ultrasound, but my insurance won't cover that....it'll cost me like $150.
Also, getting to sleep last night was a struggle. I don't know if I had a fever or what, but I couldn't get warm at all, kept having just a wave of cold wash over me every minute or two....my husband had to crank up the heat and put extra blankets on me and even with him holding and rubbing me I kept just getting those cold waves. I finally fell asleep and then woke up 3hrs later (now) too hot.
I guess what I'm asking is....should I go to an ER today, ask for an ultrasound appt tomorrow, or just keep my lab appt as usual and hope and pray and cross all my fingers and toes that it's just a little cyst and pain will subside? 😭
