Question

Had postmenopause bleeding.Tvu showed 6mm lining 10mm ovary cyst. Recent d&c clear. Pap smear ok. Now have pelvic pain and weight loss. What is this?

Answer 1

Need work up: You had ultrasound and d&c; the uterus should be clear. Bloating and pain is probably unrelated to your gynecology issues.The ovarian cyst however, is worth a follow up by ultrasound and blood test.

Answer 2

Unlikely: A transvaginal ultrasound can be suggestive of hyperplasia, but hyperplasia is a diagnosis that is made based on a biopsy or D&C of uterine tissue and then looking at that tissue under a microscope. You said your D&C was clear. A 1.3 cm ovarian cyst is very likely not ovarian cancer. Having said that, you'll want to follow your doctor's guidelines for follow of the cyst.

Answer 3

Acetaminophen: Acetaminophen (tylenol) is a safe alternative. You can take 2 extra strength (500mg) tablets up to four times per day.

Answer 4

Opioids: Allergy to nsaids like Aspirin and inbuprofen does limit some options. It does not limit the use of opioids (narcotics) like oxycodone, hydrocodone, codeine, and morphine.

Answer 5

Yes: The presence of blood in the urine, stools, painful urination or painful bowel movements could be due to involvement of these organs with endometriosis but other conditions such ass ic, other tumors of the bladder or bowel need to be excluded. Inflammatory bowel diseases like crohn's/colitis needs to be excluded.

Answer 6

Yes: It can happen but also part of the differential are processes known as interstitial cystitis and irritable bowel disease, inflammatory bowel disease. Usually a gynecologist working in concert with a urologist and/or GI specialist can help pin down the diagnosis as each is treated relatively differently...Endometriosis can invade the rectum, (or bladder) and cause bloody, painful stools.

Answer 7

Infection: You have an illness...Probably viral (because most illnesses are). Strep throat can also produce those symptoms. It is always a good choice to be seen when you feel so awful...If ears hurt too it could be an ear infection and having treatment choices is very helpful. Make an appointment to be seen.

Answer 8

May or may not: Gross blood in the urine with flank pain until proven otherwise can be a sign of kidney stones. Uti typically starts from the bladder and if left untreated can potentially travel to to the kidneys with serious consequences. Follow where the pain the starts. Stone starts from the back vs UTI from the bladder.

Answer 9

UTI blood in urine: Uti can cause visible blood in the urine. If no x-ray were performed such as ct or ultrasound then you should have one soon. I recommend a followup w a urologist as soon as possible. A subsequent urinalysis is critical should no work up is recommended on your initial visit. If your pain worsens or you develop fevers, go to your nearest er if your primary care doctor can't see you right away.

Answer 10

Unlikely: Most likely, simple respiratory track infection- bronchitis, see your doctor for examination, may give antibiotics along with cough medicine, and possible chest x-ray., metastasis is unlikely diagnosis in stage i

Answer 11

Unusual: More likely is mild radiation pneumonitis - which can be detected on x ray. You might have a simple upper respiratory infection or bronchitis (especially if you smoke). It is unusual for an er+ tumor, stage i to metastasize that rapidly.

Answer 12

Not likely: It is more likely to have bronchitis or pneumonia in the lungs especially following treatment (radiation) for early breast cancer if you develop a cough with phlegm. Check with your doctor who might have you get a chest x-ray.
