Cyst on my ovary...?
I was recently told by my doctors after an ultra-sound that I had a cyst on my left ovary, so they perscribed a birth control called Nortrel. I've been on it for a while. Recently, maybe a week ago? I've been vomiting a lot and I grow easily nauseous. I've also been having extremely bad pains on my left side down in that area. It feels kind of weird, like an achy pain and it hurts to get up sometimes. And I just sat down a while ago and that part of my side made a weird noise. I can't exactly explain it and it feels just a bit tingly.
Also, when I was six and seven, I had two hernias and I had surgery for them. I'm wondering if maybe that had something to do with it? Because I normally don't exercise and I've been trying to lately, jumping on the trampoline and stretching...

Hi, I'm old enough to be your grandfather. I hope the wisdom that comes with age and life experience will be helpful to you.
The fact is none of us are doctors and cannot and should not be making diagnoses. What I do know is what you have explained sounds extremely abnormal; to the extent that I would suggest you see a doctor immediately.
It is possible the cyst has grown and is getting ready to rupture. It is also possible that what looked like a cysts may have been something else that was too early to diagnose at that stage. Like I said I am not a doctor, what pops into my mind are things like ectopic pregnancy and tumors.
You don't say how old you are but if you plan on having children in later life you need to have this issue addressed. I would suggest you go to a hospital emergency room and have a staff gynecologist look at you.
If you still live at home with your parents this is something you need to tell you parents about. If it is an ectopic pregnancy they will not know about it unless you tell them. By law you have medical privacy and confidentiality. Meaning mom may not be in the room while your examined, unless you want her there, and the doctor cannot tell mom you do not give him/her permission to tell them. The law is called HIPPA and under that law no medical professional, which would include emt's, Paramedics, Nurses and anyone having access to you medical records can release information without your written consent.
With this in mind I believe the the best thing for you, considering what you have written, is to see a doctor today. If this means going to a hospital ER then do so.
