OK People, what's in the water??

In June I had a partial hysterectomy due to a big complex cyst on my right ovary and some other issues. I thought "great,no more time of the month,no more pain,etc" Yeah right!! Since then I have had constant pain in my left ovary. They've done an ultrasound every 6 weeks watching cysts mostly come and go(some stay)So today I went in for another one. The routine is usually that after I go home and they call me within a week to schedule yet another one to keep an eye on what they found.But that wasn't the case today. The tech left and came back with the Dr.Ugh,this can't be good.They start discussing the 4,yes 4 things they see very clearly,but unlike usual,they can't tell what they are. Not the normal (or complex) cysts they normally see. Something else maybe but it's not quite clear. So,I'm waiting to find out when they are scheduling my MRI for.

But wait,it's not over yet!! 5 months ago I was sent for a mammogram and ultrasound of my right breast. There was some tenderness,just being cautious. Except they found something "suspicious" So they scheduled another one 6 months out,which was scheduled for November 20. But after talking to him and with the findings today we decided I should get an MRI instead of just repeating the US and mammogram which wasn't very clear last time. MRIs seem to pick up alot more than the other 2.

So,back to my question. What's in the water?? People all around me are getting diagnosed with cancer or having other really weird health issues that are cause for concern.Is this some form of bio-terrorism? What the heck??

So,now I get to be patient. Easier said than done.
