Re: Feeling helpless due to Bartholin Cyst

I also have had these cysts it started about 15 years ago or earlier I always had them on both sides but they didn't bother me even during sex then one day one of them grew and gave me a lot of pain so I went to the dr and they lanced it , no problems for about 15 years then I switched jobs in October 2013 and two weeks later my right cyst flared up it was so painful I could not even walk so I went to the emergency room they drained it and inserted a catheter which was very painful I was suppose to leave it in for two days ,went back and they didn't want to take it out so went home and took it out myself ,no insurance so it all cost me about 1800 dollars I have not gone back ,so i felt like I was getting better then 3 weeks later and grew again to the size of a large egg so I looked up cures on line tried every remedy tree tea oil hot baths with epson salts , I also read about someone that would get them to burst herself so sat on a massager for 15 minutes I was in extreme pain had a fever felt so sick ,when I stood up I felt it pop and warmth gunk oozing down my legs but I felt instant relief it all came out the cyst went flat and I thought I was cured I also started to take serrapeptase but 3 weeks later it grew again ! I did all of the above again had it for 4 days message it again finally it burst again all puss ,fluids drained out . I quit my job because I worked in a health club where I inhaled chlorine everyday so I read about the effects of inhaling chlorine and I am convinced that is what caused my flare ups I quit in March and I seem fine for now and cyst area is still flat and healed ! So to all of you out there make sure you are not inhaling or working with chlorine !!!!! I hope this helps !!!!!! Tweet
