"Results" (HA!)

I called the imaging department yesterday to see about booking an appointment since I hadn't heard from them.  (SO glad I listened to the nurse in ER instead of arguing semantics: the doctor - as well as the requisition - said to call if I hadn't heard from them in two business days, two business days being Monday and Tuesday (meaning I should call Wednesday).  When the nurse brought me the req, she said something about calling Tuesday after 11am if I hadn't heard from them by then.  I started to argue clarify, but Chebbar cut me off and thanked her.  So, yesterday at 11:00:01am, I called.  "Yes, we have you booked for 8 o'clock tomorrow morning."  o_O  If I *had* been a stubborn asshole and waited two full days instead of heeding the nurse's advice, I would have missed said ultrasound.  Oy.)

I got there bright and early, mostly because I was worried about finding parking (they're doing construction and I'm too cheap to pay for parking, so I had to give myself enough time to walk a few blocks if need be).  I was registered and in the back by 7:45.  Once again, the medical community saw fit to over-book (there were FIVE of us with appointments at 8am, and they were only using two of the four ultrasound suites).

Anyhow, long story short (GOD, I'm verbose!  Sorry 'bout that... ), "unofficially" the ultrasound tech didn't see any gallstones.  As well, the cyst on my left ovary is gone, BUT! I now have a 4cm cyst on my right ovary.  That's 2 inches.  THAT'S HUGE.  Granted, I know it's not as big as some, but shit!  I've got something the size of a golf ball attacking attached to my poor widdle ovary!  The U/S tech double-checked the last ultrasound just to make sure that they hadn't somehow mixed up the left and right, but it was definitely on my left ovary.

So, yeah.  No *real* answers because, while this cyst is on the same side as the pains I've been having, it has developed sometime after my ultrasound on February 26, so not the cause of the pain from November to that point.  It will be about a week before my hack doctor gets the results.  I guess I'll be making yet another appointment, except this time I'm not leaving without a referral to a specialist (what kind, I'm not sure: gynecologist? endocrinologist? gastroenterologist?  I mean, *in theory* I shouldn't even be getting cysts because I'm on the pill and therefore not (supposed to be) ovulating!) - enough is enough and I'm not going to continue being put off by her with her "suggestions" of MOAR FIBER!!!1!one!
