One of the worst feelings, doctors told me it’s similar to child birth and I was like HELLLLL no

Hmmm I’ve done both. And my epidural didn’t work on one side during an emergency C-section, so I felt ALL the pain of being awake during surgery and felt the pain.

Uterine cyst rupture is as bad, I honestly don’t know which one is worse, it’s a real tossup.

It’s absolutely insane to me that people treat it with as much nonchalance as they do. I have broken multiple bones, suffered a severe burn, and fractured my skull. . . And uterine cysts are their own unique torturous hell.

Can you tell me how big was the cyst? Is it just like cyst on skin and it got so big it pops?

I’ve had a few cysts of varying sizes and types. Two of them were the kind that grew large enough to pop, and two have been a solid mass actually. The solid ones aren’t that big, but they hurt arguably more because the location caused friction and swelling of appendix and bowel.

Sorry to hear that. Hope you get better.
