Hi everyone. I’m 28 and feeling very anxious after getting my pelvic MRI results. I’m hoping to hear from people who have had something similar.

My MRI showed:

Right ovary: about 8.3 cm complex cystic-and-solid mass, with enhancing solid components and restricted diffusion. It was categorized as O-RADS MRI 4 (intermediate risk). The MRI did not show fat, so the original ultrasound suggestion of a dermoid is now less likely.

Left ovary: about 8.3 cm minimally complex cyst, now categorized as O-RADS MRI 3 (low risk).

I also have a right hydrosalpinx, meaning the right fallopian tube is enlarged and filled with fluid.

The report says there is no gross invasion, no enlarged lymph nodes, and no peritoneal/omental nodules.
My radiologist recommended gynecology referral and CA-125 testing. I’m waiting to hear about the next steps and whether surgery will be needed.

I really want children in the future, so I’m worried about whether both ovaries can be preserved. I also recently had a total thyroidectomy, so the thought of another surgery so soon is overwhelming.

Has anyone had an O-RADS MRI 4 mass around 8–9 cm that turned out to be benign or borderline?
If you had surgery:

Was it laparoscopic or open?
Were they able to do a cystectomy and save your ovary?
Did anyone also have a hydrosalpinx?
What did the pathology end up showing?
How long was your recovery?

Were you still able to preserve your fertility?

I know Reddit can’t diagnose me and I’m following up with my doctors. I’m mostly looking for real experiences while I wait because the uncertainty is really difficult.
Thank you ❤️

Hi everyone. I’m hoping to hear from anyone who has been through something similar because I’m feeling really anxious while waiting for my MRI results.

My pelvic ultrasound found two fairly large masses:

• Right side: about 8.8 × 10.7 × 6.7 cm, mixed cystic/solid. The radiologist said it could possibly be a dermoid, although it may be separate from the right ovary.
• Left/midline: about 9.0 × 8.7 × 6.3 cm, mostly cystic with a thin septation and a very small ~5 mm papillary projection. This one was categorized as O-RADS 4.
The radiologist recommended an expedited pelvic MRI. I already had the MRI and am now just waiting for the report.

I’ve been having a lot of abdominal bloating/fullness and my stomach has become noticeably bigger. I’ve also had some bladder pressure/fullness. I’m worried about what these findings could mean, especially the O-RADS 4 classification and papillary projection.

I also have a history of Graves’ disease and total thyroidectomy, so I’m curious if anyone here has dealt with ovarian cysts/masses after thyroid problems as well.
Has anyone had an O-RADS 4 cyst around 9–11 cm that ended up being benign? Did you need laparoscopic surgery? Were your surgeons able to preserve your ovaries, and were you still able to get pregnant afterward?

I know Reddit can’t diagnose me and I’m waiting for my doctors/MRI report. I’m mainly hoping to hear some experiences from people who went through something similar because the waiting is difficult.

Hi everyone! 😊 We’ll be travelling around Peru for about 1.5 weeks and are looking for recommendations for a good SIM card or eSIM.

We’ll be visiting Lima, Cusco, Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu, so ideally something with reliable data coverage in those areas.

Which provider did you use, and how was the signal/data speed? Also, would you recommend buying a physical SIM once we arrive or getting an eSIM before the trip?
Thank you!

Hi! Any feedback for those who use Airalo in Peru? Do you recomnmend it?

Hi! We will be going to Peru on Aug 26-Sep 2, 27-28 we will do the 2 days 1 night Sacred Valley and MP tour. I heard that it keeps on raining this week, I’m just wondering how did you protect your passport from getting wet. Also, did you buy your poncho in peru already?

Can you wear a dress while hiking MP? I’ll definitely wear a hiking shoes tho

I’m so done with PA, it feels like this is not for me only been here for 8 mos and im not progressing.

We’ve tried Haidilao before so this is already off the list.

Thank you

Hi everyone,

I’m considering taking the online BBA program at the University of Fredericton (UFred), and I’d like to hear from people who are currently enrolled or have completed some of the courses.

I was told that all exams are online. Can anyone currently in the program confirm how the exams actually work? Are they proctored, open-book, timed, or monitored in any way?

I’m also interested in:
How difficult are the courses, assignments, and exams?
How much time do you normally spend per course each week?

Are the professors/instructors helpful?
Is it manageable while working full-time?
What are the online exams like?

Do employers in Canada recognize the UFred BBA?
Overall, do you think the program is worth the tuition?
I’d really appreciate hearing about your personal experience, especially from current or former BBA students.

Thanks!

Hi! Two friends and I are travelling to Peru from August 27 to September 2, 2026 and would love some advice.
August 27 – Lima

Arrive around 3:00 a.m.
Planning to stay in Miraflores
Dinner reservation at Mérito at 5:30 p.m.
Should we book the hotel starting August 26 so we can check in immediately? Any affordable and safe hotel recommendations in Miraflores or Barranco?
What is the safest transportation from Lima airport to the hotel at 3:00 a.m.—hotel transfer, official taxi, Uber, or Cabify?

August 28 – Cusco

Flight to Cusco at 6:10 a.m.
Planning a relaxed acclimatization day near Plaza de Armas
Any hotel recommendations near Plaza de Armas that are quiet, comfortable, and offer luggage storage and airport pickup?

August 29–30
Booked a 2-day Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu tour with SAM Travel Peru, including the Salt Mines and observatory experience
Should we keep our Cusco hotel room during the overnight tour or check out and leave our luggage with the hotel?

August 31
Considering Rainbow Mountain
Is Rainbow Mountain too tiring immediately after Machu Picchu? Any easier alternatives?

September 1
Fly back to Lima and stay one final night
Would you choose Miraflores or Barranco?
We would appreciate recommendations for hotels, activities, airport transportation, typical taxi prices, and how early we should leave for each flight. Thank you!

I have about 3.5 years of accounting experience:
2.5 years as an accountant at a small accounting firm
1 year as a senior accountant in public accounting
I’m not currently enrolled in the CPA program.

I’m considering resigning from my public accounting position and moving into industry.

Would leaving now hurt my career prospects because I don’t have my CPA designation? What types of industry roles would I realistically qualify for with my experience?

For anyone who left public accounting without a CPA, how did the transition go? Did you have trouble progressing or finding better-paying roles?

My partner and I both earn about $70k gross ($140k combined), and we’re struggling to understand how people our age are buying $700k–$800k homes without family help.

Our rent is $1,800/month, we don’t own cars, and our other expenses (phone, internet, insurance, food, etc.) are roughly another $1,300/month combined.

We’re both 30 and don’t have any inheritance or financial support from family. Even with decent incomes and relatively modest expenses, a $700k–$800k house seems out of reach.

For those who have bought in that price range, how did you make it work? Larger down payment? Higher incomes? Help from family? Are people stretching themselves financially, or are we missing something?

Hi! My partner and I are planning to elope in Italy, no ceremony just the two of us. For those who did this, would you mind sharing your expenses and budget. For context, we are from Canada. Thank you
