Functional cyst left ovary

Hello, I am very glad that this forum is existing, it gives a lot of information, knowledge and help. Being lucky I have never had severe problems with my ovaries - until now.
Here is my history:
In autumn 2006 I experienced a pregnancy inside the left tube. The fetus died and I was sent to hospital for a laparoscopy to have it removed. They left the tue inside on my demand. Just after being released from hospital I delevoleped a severe peritonitis. After it was over, my left tube was constantly filled with liquid. Another laparoscopy was adviced, which I refused and I treated it with homeopathy on high d1000 and c200 potencies with Silicea, and also Sulfur c30, while drinking some TCM tea several times.
Strangely, the liquid went on and off, and was off, everytime I went to a different gynacologist than my own, so first it looked not very successful to get rid of this hydrosalpinx, when in Mai 2007 it was suddenly all back to normal.
Then in summer 2008 (more than a year later) I had developed a myom on top of the uterus (size 3.5 x 1.5 cm) together with a functional cyst on the left ovary (diameter 10.65 cm, with 3 chambers). Without any further test I was asked to have an operation, which I refused.
I started the TCM tea again, and homeopathie with Agnus Castus C30 and Lachesis C6, to change the hormons and to dry it out. Half a year later the myom was gone, but the cyst remained, only approx. 1 cm smaller, 6 weeks later it was 1 cm smaller again, but still the size is 8.3 x 6.1 cm.
What can I do? Change the potency or take it more often? It is all left sided. It does not pain, just a slight pulling feeling sometimes, mensis is on time as usual, nothing unnormal otherwise. I startet doing regular sports again just recently. I am in the mid-40ies, no children.
Looking forward to your help and advice. Thanks a lot.

Please answer the following questions in a descriptive manner after careful analysis and recollection of previous experiences and happenings.

1. Describe your main suffering?
Sometimes a dull, pulling sensation left sided in ovary area - but not painful.

2. What other physical sufferings do you have in your body?
Skin irritations: For years I have sudden outbreaks of small red pimples with sharp burning clear liquid on my skin - only front body from hip upwards to waist and chest area. They come and go as they want it seems. Then spontaneously they heal, to come back again unexpectedly. While healing = not itching, they develop hard covers of crust. (I dont know if it is connected to hormons or rather sugary nutrition. Schoolmedicine Doctors could not help it so far, also there is no allergy.) Otherwise my skin is in very good condition.
For around some month now, whenever I eat meat regularly, I develop black shadows around my eyes - esp. in the mornings after getting up.
My teeth tend to have caries, the gums vanished and exposed some parts of the roots, the tipps of the teeth are getting more and more glassy transparent. The surface of the teeth seems to vanish leaving greyish spots - all in all they appear still whitish, but looking closely I can see all the defects.
As a child I tended to have a lot of herpes simplex on the mouth lips, for the last decades it had vanished, but since last year it breaks out again more often, sometimes once in a month on the upper lip under the nose (while in juvenile times it was right or left sided or located on the lower lip).
When I eat certain cooked food, I feel swelled up afterwarts, as if too much water is collected under my skin.
Recently, my lower back near the spinal cord started hurting as if overstretched on the left side - even though I did not do anything wrong. I woke up like this in the morning. (Taking Rhus toxicodendron made it better).
Before menstruation I used to take Belladonna for easing cramps and migraine for the last 10 years.
Since I am drinking tea from Achemilla, Artemisia vulg., and Rubi idaei for a month there were no cramps in the last mestruation and it was a feeling of being completely released.
I also take Agnus Castus sometimes.

3. What mental sufferings / feelings do you have associated with your physical sufferings?
Usually I am very positive. Sometimes I am near to tears, esp. in positive emotional situation, e.g. someone is helping somebody or rescueing a cat, or so.
I am very sensitive in relationships. I react emotionally to music.

4. What exactly do you feel when you are at your worst?
At the worst I am having maybe migraine and a complete feeling of weakness.
Or on the other hand, I can be pretty scared and afraid suddenly, having deep depressions, thinking everything is useless, life has no sense at all - but without suicidal thoughts; I rather think the world is growing worse and there is no solution to it. This state of mind makes me become critical and change everyday matters.

5. When did it all start? Can you connect it to any past event or disease?
This has been all of my life like this, it is not connected with the current physical disease or the tube pregnancy of some years ago.

6. Which time of the day you are worst?
Mornings, daytime - while evening and night time seem to give me new energy, inspiration and ideas.

7. What are the things which aggravate your suffering and which are those which ameliorate the same?
It is worse with: cold, wet weather, grey weather, when not doing sports.
It is better with: light, sunlight, movement, physical activity, (sometimes contact to a certain person can make it better - but not always).

8. Do your think your sufferings have relation to any external stimuli (like, change of place) or any internal biological changes in the body, like, menses (in females)?
I guess my hormons are a little confused, esp. since that miscarriage in the left tube.

9. When do you feel better, during hot weather or cold weather, humid or dry weather?
Hot weather makes me feel good. With hot weather, I guess the humidity is not having a negative effect on me.
I feel awful, when it is humid and cold.

10. Describe your general mental set up? Are you Moody, Arrogant, Mild, Agreeable Changeable, Nervous, Suspicious, Easily offended, Quiet, Arguing, Irritating, Lazy etc.
Mild, agreeable, changeable, flexible, nervous, lively, arguing in a friendly way, calm, laughing a lot, sensitive - sometimes easily hurt, sometimes lazy, in general very active, vivid mind, creative,
rarely upset, I tend to talk more than to listen. Sometimes the most unimportant matters can upset me.

- How do you feel before or during a thunderstorm?
Released.

- Do you like being consoled during your tough times?
Rather not, because it weakens my decisions, and I would feel embarrassed to show others my 'failure' or depression. Only my husband may console me sometimes.

- Are you sensitive to external stimuli like smell, noise, light etc?
Yes, there was a time, when it was before mestruation - that is why I took Belladonna. And before my miscarriage I had times when I was hyper-sensitive to noise, and I started to use Silicea in medium and low potency. Right now, I am very relaxed and I do not have these symptoms any more.
By the way I stopped drinking coffeine-containing drinks. They make my condition worse.

- Do you have any typical habit or gesture like nail biting, causeless weeping, talking to one self etc?
Yes, sometimes: causeless weeping and also talking to myself, esp. when upset.

- How do you feel about your friends, family, your children and especially your husband / wife?
For decades I had trouble with my mother, which was getting better in the last years (after her menopause years). She had a very strict, arguing, fighting, knowing it better and suspicious personality before - She could not deal with my 'hyperactive' mind and sensitivity, she was distressed by life matters. Her husband is more the obedient passive type.
With my brother I have only rare contact, mostly then I feel very misunderstood by him.
My husband and friends are the only people who understand me. We share a lot, but I can share weakness best with my husband. Some friends do not want to see me weak, they see me as a strong person.

11. What are your fears and do you dream of any situation repeatedly?
Loss - I have times when I dream a lot about losing something, or someone, or my hair, my teeths, my voice etc..
Or that people start laughing at me and I am embarrassed. Or that I forgot my working utensils when going to work.

12. What do you crave for in food items and what are your aversions?
I dislike greasy, fried food, I dont eat salty food.
I love fruits. I eat a lot of fruits, and salads. I love fish and shrimps.
I rarely cook rice meals or pasta. I am fond of lentil lately. Sometimes I eat a lot of olives.
I do drink milk in tea and spelt coffee (I stopped drinking coffeine for some months now - it seems to ease the break out of herpes, because coffee also hurt my stomach).
I think, I eat too much sugar (cake, cookies, pudding, chocolate bars etc.) - My stomach pains afterwards and reacts a lot with flatulences (and I suppose that the above mentioned skin eruptions are connected with it).
I do eat meat rarely (lamb meat) approx. twice a week - trying to avoid it completely, because if I eat meat e.g. three days in a row, I feel stuffed up inside, slow digestion, also I develop black rings around my eyes.
I do not drink any alcohol.
Icecream and cold beverages seem to hurt my stomach.- I try to avoid them.

13. How is your thirst: Less, Normal or Excessive?
I do have a lot of thirst, I wake up with a dry throat very often. But sometimes I eat instead of drinking. Sometimes I have an aversion to drink water. For the last 7 month I guess I did not drink enough water, I guess I dehydrated somehow. I do train myself now to drink more than a litre of still water a day.
I tend to drink tea and / or spelt coffee with milk a lot, i.e. several cups in a day.

14. How if your hunger: Less, Normal or Excessive?
Not so much hunger, I do not eat in normal regularity, only when I am hungry. Mostly from afternoon till evening. In the mornings I drink tea and spelt coffee a lot.
I feel not hungry in the mornings. I feel uncomfortable when forced to eat the regular three meals in a day. I need to eat only when I am hungry, otherwise I start feeling depressed and stuffed.
In the last month I had the feeling of gaining weight even without eating a lot.

15. Is there any kind of food which your body can’t stand?
White flour. Some years ago it gave me allergic reactions like pimples on the temples and breathing proplems. I avoided it then, and now I can eat it sometimes agian without harm.
If I eat it regular, the pimples come back and I have a sensation of throat ache as if having a sore throat. So I am still avoiding it.

16. Is your sweat normal or less or more? Where does it sweat more: Head, Trunk or Limbs?
Sometimes I have wet armpits (after tension/distress or drinking coffee or sports).
My feet sweat at night, my hands do sweat sometimes.
Around my chest and waist I can feel sweat after short physical strains.

17. How is your bowel movement and stool type?
Since the laparoscopy on my left tube I can feel it very clearly.
It is regurlar, no constipations, type is dark (after salad and fruits), beige (after milk products), mostly medium soft, rarely harder.

18. How well do you sleep? Do you have a particular posture of sleeping?
Since I started doing sports again (10 minutes a day), I do sleep deep and relaxed.
But, when I am tired around 22H00, I can not fall asleep immediately, and I then read or work on my computer until 1 a.m..
Last night I slept on the back, symmetrically stretched. But usually I sleep rolled to the right - sometimes left side, right arm bent under my head.
Also I like to sleep on my belly, arms hugging the pillow.

19. Do you think you are able to satisfy your sexual desires in general?
Yes.

20. What peculiar or strange sensation do you have in any part of your body at times? Do you sometimes feel ‘ as if…..’ in some part of the body?
Rarely, tongue feels like it fell asleep. (Last week once.)
At the moment it is fine, but there are times, when the right shoulder blade has cramped muscles or tendons.
I have sometimes cramps in the upper feet (I am wearing flat shoes never high heels), and in the upper thighs.

21. What medications have been taken earlier by you to treat the diseases and do you have any particular symptom surfacing after the medication?
Agnus Castus D12/C30/C200 (more or less frequently), Lachesis D6 (for the ovarial cyst), Belladonna D6/C30 (before menstruation), Silicea C200/D1000 + Sulphur C6/C30 (when I had the hydrosalpinx),
Schüssler: (all in D6) #1, 4, 10, 25 (for ovarial cyst) and 6, 8, 9 (for the skin problems),
Rhus toxicodendron comp. (by Wala - D3) (for the ache in the lower part of the tendon near the spinal cord - movement is not handicapped at all).
Tea from Achemilla, Artemisia vulg., and Rubi idaei for a month now.
TCM tea once for 5 days to dry out the ovarial cyst (it contains Sparganii, Cyperi, Plantaginis, Polygoni multi, Curcumae, Liquidambaris, Poria scletorium) - which helped a lot to cure the hydrosalpinx (then I took it several times for 5 days, over some month).

22. What major diseases are running in your family?
My mother had a chemotherapy for cancer in the lower body parts, my grandmother died of breast cancer.
My cancer tests (tumor markers) have been always negative.

23. Describe, how do you look like? Describe your overall appearance.
Tall, slim, brown shiny long hair, generally clear skin, but small black-heads in nose region, freckles, female appearance, appearing younger than real age (approx. 9-10 years)
