ruptured cyst

Hi, I am 24, and about 2 months ago, while I was laying down the lower right side of my stomach blew up like a ballon. At first I thought it was hernia, so I went to see a doctor, who denied it, and said it was probably just gas. My syptoms got worse, so I went to see another doctor - my stomach was swelling up so much at night, and the ballon seemed to travel up around my bellybutton, and up where the ribs are...I had pinching and cramping and twisting pain, and sometimes it feels like something is tearing me apart in there. Later I also got back pain, it feels dull, and hurts so bad it is waking me up. The next doctor gave me an ultra sound, and saw there was some fluid irritating my intestine (that is why they were swelling up), and he said that one of my cysts exploded.He gave me some celebrex, but I stopped taking them since they gave me a weird side effect. Than I went to my doctor with my problem, because the pain is getting worse - and she almost laught at me, saying I probably have just gas. Then I went to see my GP, and i did cat scan, and that came back perfect. I still have all these symtoms, and nothing is changing, my stomach feels bloated all the time and it looks really swolen.
Does any one else has any symilar symptoms or knows anything about this? How long is this pain supposed to last? It drives me crazy, I cant even walk too much, I stopped working out...I just want to feel like myself again. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
