The waiting game

Hello all, 

I'm new to this site. I had thyroid cancer last year. (Complete thyroidectomy and radiation). 

I've always had an issue with ovarian cysts. I had been told that it was a normal part of being a woman so I never really gave it much thought. I was just going to be "one of those" women who had issues. 

A few weeks ago, I woke with a pretty sharp pain in my lower left side. On top of previously having cancer, I've also been diagnosed with RA and occasionally when my levels are off, I'll go full "hypo". I figured the pains had something to do with my levels being off and attempted to go about my day. But it just got worse, and worse, and worse and then finally, it got so bad that I literally passed out for a moment. The hubs said I went completely pale (which is a feat for me because I'm naturally ghost white as it is). Once I woke up, I threw up. 

Called my primary to attempt to make an appointment and instead was directed to the ER. So off I go to the E.R. Several hours, an IV, and a scan or two later and I'm sent home with the instructions to follow up with my gyn as soon as possible and that I had what was most likely "a ruptured ovarian cyst" but they couldn't find any fluid from the rupture. 

Okay fine. But when the doctor was discharging me, he asked if I was done having children. I was just ready to be done at the time and to go home so it wasn't until later that struck me as an odd thing to say to a 32 year old woman. (Who was holding her 2 and 4 year olds)

I followed up with my gyn. Had a few more scans and was sent home to wait on the results. Results came back. Essentially, my left ovary is mostly a complex cyst and my right has two very large simple cysts. When I went back to my gyn, he immediately began to go over surgery options and was sent to have my CA125 done. 

I'll have those results on Monday. 

Right now, given my previous history with cancer, he's a bit concerned that my left ovary is cancerous. He'd like to get aggressive and not only remove my left, but my right one as well and my uterus. His explanation was that he was afraid that if I left my right one in, that I would be right back to where I am now in 3 weeks, months, or years and having to have a repeat surgery. 

I don't know what to do. Do I follow his advice, do I get aggressive and put myself into surgical menopause or do I wait it out and see what happens to my right after my left is removed? 

The waiting is terrible. What should I do? Should I wait it out and keep my right so I don't have to do the whole hormone replace therapy thing? Should I get aggressive? Given my ultrasoun results and my previous history, what is the likelyhood that this is ovarian cancer? 

I had been having a few other problems as of late as well. I am urinating more often, intercourse has been a bit painful, I'm quite bloated... but these were things I could all chalk up to the thyroid issues or the RA. 

Thanks so much, sorry about the novella. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
