Hello,

I am very recently diagnosed (under a week ago). I am wondering if light headedness is a common symptom and feeling quite faint? I have 2 cysts and they are quite large. I am seeing a gyno next week and expecting she will recommend surgery. I eat very healthy and drink enough, but do feel quite dizzy all the time. I am wondering if this is possibly feeling quite anxious about it also.

Thanks so much :) Hugs to all.

I just got diagnosed as well. For me personally, i do get very lightheaded. However, my birthcontrol recently got switched in hopes to help the symptoms, so my hormones are all over the place. Im not sure if that has anything to do with it. Best of luck to you!

Thank you! Previous birth control switches definitely had that impact on me as well.

Thank you. :) My heart rate is good and my blood tests were all normal as well. I am thinking it may be me freaking out a little in addition to possibly the cysts growing in size and causing me pain.
