Is it possible to have a condition that causes cysts in various parts of the body?


Doctors found over 20 cysts on just one ovary, and my allergy doctor found a cyst in my sinus cavity. I am now having chronic swollen ankles, back pain, and dizziness, and I am worried about having poly-cystic kidneys.
----------

yes, you should work more with your allergy doctor to find and remove the toxins that are causing the cysts. Also, a good detox diet for about 7 days should so some signs of improvement. If you don't feel better after 7 days, then drop the detox, it is caused by something else.   (+ info)

You haven’t read the material have you?
Cancer can spread to other parts of your body and if left untreated can kill you. Epidermal cysts lumps cannot. Unless the doctor showed it to you after surgery you would never know the color and I can’t see how this would matter.  (+ info)

Would an ultrasound always show ovarian cysts if they are there?


I don't mean to say that cysts might not show because they're so tiny, but rather, is it possible that they might not show due to some sort of physical positioning of one's anatomy? Sort of like when a woman is pregnant and if the baby moves, they can't always pick up the heartbeat with the fetal monitor? Is it possible that the cysts could be sitting in such a way that the ultrasound doesn't pick them up?
----------

If the ovaries could be seen on the ultrasound, we would be able to see if there were cysts on them. As you know, cysts are fluid filled sacs, and ultrasound images any fluid filled structure very well. For example, the urinary bladder is seen very well when it is full of fluid (urine). A fetal stomach is easily seen on ultrasound, due to the amniotic fluid the baby swallows. Really, the only way ovarian cysts would be missed with ultrasound is when the ovary is not visualized at all. This can happen if the patient is obese, the bladder is not full enough on transabdominal scanning, or the patient is "gassy", as ultrasound cannot see through air.  (+ info)
