For the past couple of months i have been having lower left abdominal pain..(cramps almost). Then about almost a month ago i started having lower left back pain as well. Had gotten so bad my husband and i went to the er. The dr there thought that i possibly was suffering from pelvic inflammatory disease and started me on antibiotics.

A few days later i was not any better and was seen by a midwife at my gyn's office. The conclusion was that maybe i did have it but also needed to get an antibiotic shot and continue the meds. At this point they had done 2 pelvic exams and each time there was so much pain!! Blood work came back negative as did my urine culture.

After 2 weeks i was seen by my normal GYN and he was still somewhat baffled being that the tests so far were negative and he continued to keep me on my antibiotics and suggested a CT scan and depending on those results laproscopy. My internal ultrasound found two very small cysts but nothing to be concerned about. He also thought maybe i had a cyst that ruptured but no fluid was present during the ultrasound.

My pain went away for a couple of days but now the lower left back pain is back in full force and i am having light cramping again. Of course i have just started my cycle as well so could that be the cause this time? Not sure.

The CT scan is scheduled for this Saturday and i am so worried. Part of me wants something to show up so people won't think that i am crazy and just making this up. Part of me is terrified about what could show up.

Has anyone ever experienced anything similar? Any thoughts?
