Are dermoids fatal?
So lately I've been struggling with a really potent kidney stone, to the point where my entire abdomen HURTS.
A dermoid cyst - 5cm was recently found on my left ovary, and I'm starting to mix the pain from the stone with the cyst(which hasn't been bothering me at all), I don't know whats what anymore.
My cobra paperwork has still not gone through with my insurance, so I'm just dealing with this with pain meds.
I was just wondering, if a dermoid cyst ruptures, can it be fatal if not treated? I probably don't want to know, I've already freaked myself out enough, but right now I can't afford more doctors bills for this thing. Pain I can handle, death, not so much...
Any words of wisdom you can give me on dealing with a dermoid? How big does it have to get before it can cause a problem?
