HELP?!?

Does anyone else get ovarian cyst, and they make you feel like you are absolutely dying? I've been getting them for about 3 years now and they are awful. I was wondering if any body else gets them and possibly knows any tips on how to feel better when you get one. I've been the the doctor and they always say it's one of those things that they can't do anything about. They just send me home with pain medication and that's it. But would anyone else possibly know some tips to help out.  Currently laid out of school for one.
