hi icemaiden, the 3hrs could mean that its a one stop shop basically and you get the tests and results all in one go, i had a cyst removed on my right ovary in 1999 it doesnt mean that you have to have a hysterectomy, they just need to make sure so they cover everything, cysts can be fluid filled, gristle filled or fat filled, the majority of them are harmless but need to be removed if they do not show signs of disappearing or shrinking as they can cause pain, i went on to have a full hysterectomy due to other problems,the following year at the age of 35, i count myself lucky as i already had 2 boys.
good luck with your tests.
