Fibroid / Pelvic Cyst

So, I had an ultrasound which revealed a very large fibroid (5.7 cm! -- basically the size of a clementine and palpable from the outside) as well as a pelvic cyst. This is not a typical ovarian cyst (which I've had before and which have all resolved on their own).  This is a peritoneal cyst which is behind the ovary and "encapsulated by scar tissue" from my prior surgeries.  My surgeon is referring me to a gynecologist for a further opinion on both.

Anyone have experience with peritoneal cysts post surgery?  What about having a hysterectomy or myomectomy with a pouch? I'm 43 and wasn't quite ready for that, but it sounds like it isn't being ruled out. 

Thanks for the info as always!
