Resxan, I agree with @jeanne5009. Keep asking questions. While your doctor may not be concerned, this is because he or she has medical knowledge to inform their understanding of the lab results. Ask them why they are not concerned at this time. I would also ask things like:
- Are the cysts benign (non-cancerous)?
- Do they need to be removed?
- What are the risks of not removing them? What are the risks of removal?
- Will you continue to monitor the cysts? How and how often?
- What signs or symptoms should I look out for?

Jeanne, @faithann64, @hopeful33250, what other question do you think @rexsan20 should think to ask?
