I am freaking out... I've been feeling strange pulling/cramps on the lower side (probably ovary) since my second miscarriage. I actually had some right side pain during my first m/c too but doctors in the ER never saw anything wrong with my right side. I did not go to the doctor during or after my second m/c since it was so early on.

So my right ovary and my right breast are hurting. How weird is that? I am thinking i probably have a cyst or a cancer. I do not have insurance at the moment and I do not know what to do.... I thought I was going to see my doctor in May since I was flying to Europe to see my parents.. but then there was a change in plans and I'm going in September instead.. i do not know if I can stand this pain (though most of the time just an uncomfortable feeling) till September.... I am scared that if it's something bad that i can make it worse if I wait that long..OMG. I do not know what to do. I am actually thinking of changing my plans again and buying super expensive plane tickets for May... I am scared that if something is wrong with my right ovary, they'll cut it out and I won't ever have children... ugh
I do not want to go to a local doctor without an insurance since that would cost me the same as plane tickets..

I do not know what kind of answer i am looking for... I guess I am just venting...

I'm sorry to hear that Natalie. I don't really know what to advise.. I mean if you go and see a doctor in Europe, what if it turns out you need some kind of treatment? Will you stay there for the treatment too?
I really hope nothing is wrong!
When can you get insurance?

Hugs. Not sure what it could be.
Keep us posted if you get a diagnosis.

Yeah, i actually plan on staying there for several months and I can get great treatment too.. i have an insurance there and if i have to pay out of pocket, it's affordable. I was just hoping to go in September.. if this pain doesn't go away, i should probably go in May...

I am not sure when we're going to have an insurance here. My DH's new job doesn't provide an insurance. He is in the process of getting another job with a good insurance but that can take some time. Our whole plan was to have a baby born in Europe (I wanted my parents to spend more time with my baby).. now I am surprised to have two m/c and also this weird pain in my right ovary.....

***Hugs*** I wish I knew what to say... Definitely keep us posted after your visit with your doctor.

I'm sorry you are going through this.

I had a cyst but I didn't know about it until it ruptured. It was so painful that I passed out from the pain and cracked my head open so I got to deal with that pain too. There was nothing they could do for me but give me pain meds. They told me that my body would just eventually reabsorb to blood. It didn't affect my fertility but it hurt like heck. My very next cycle I got pregnant

I hope you can figure out what the best thing is for you to do.

I'm sorry you have to deal with this! I think if your instinct is to get it checked out sooner rather than later, then you should go with that. KUP!

If I were you id go to your local hospital. They legally have to treat you, espically if its a medical emergency. (cancer, ovary problems... ect) even if you dont have insurance or the money to pay for it

I know they would treat me... but i am a very responsible person, so i'd have to pay whatever huge bill they would send me. I have almost payed off the bill from the ER where i had my first m/c.... so i do not want to get another one. Therefore, I decided that if i feel really bad, i just book the very next flight . The plane ticket cost is way below or equal to the hospital bill. At least, you know, I'd get to see my parents!

BTW, I feel better today and I hope that whatever it is it goes away on its own.

I am not a doctor, but it sounds like a cyst to me. I had the same thing happen after my loss. Since you are in the USA you can go to a walk in center and get treated. It would cost you at max $100 to be seen. It may give you the peace of mind you need until you get back overseas.
