Allison Fisher, a 20-year-old from Florida, says she feels like she’s been given a “second life”
after doctors discovered and removed a massive ovarian cyst. For months, Allison’s stomach kept growing,
leaving her feeling like she was “pregnant with 10 kids.” Simple things — lying on her side, walking,
or breathing comfortably — became nearly impossible.
Doctors were stunned when scans revealed the cause: a giant ovarian cyst that had expanded inside her abdomen,
giving her the appearance of carrying a huge inflated ball. The growth was so extreme that Allison struggled daily,
both physically and emotionally.Her surgery shocked even the medical team. The cyst was enormous,
weighing more than most newborn babies. Once removed, Allison’s relief was immediate — she could finally breathe and move freely again.
Allison now shares her story to raise awareness about ovarian health and the importance of listening to your body when
something feels wrong. Her case highlights how cysts can grow silently, often overlooked until they reach dangerous sizes.
After a long and frightening ordeal, she says she is grateful for the doctors who saved her life
— and for the chance to start over without the pain that once consumed her.
