Cyst that doesn't go away

I had an ultra sound back in April of 2017 and there was noted a small hemoragic cyst on my left ovary.  I was having some other medical issues, so I did have it checked out by my gyn and she said it was normal to have cysts and not to worry about it.  I had a follow up scan recently for kidney cancer, and the cyst on the ovary is STILL there.  I thought these things were supposed to go away?  I have pain on my left side and in my back, not constant, but frequently.  I have dismissed it as having scar tissue growing from my kidney surgery.  I have had 2 normal periods during the month of January, which is very unsual for me,..and then today I started spotting again.  Its not alot of blood, its not dark blood, just there when I wipe after urinating a couple times today.  I have had some issues with recurrent uti and uti symptoms lately, and then last week I started with symptoms of a yeast infection.  All this time I have been blaming all of this medical stuff on my kidneys, but after doing some research online, I'm wondering if it could be ovarian related instead.  I have stabbing pain sometimes when I eat, like its painful to digest my food.  Not always, but sometimes.  Its all on my left side. 

I have made an appt with my gyn for friday, but I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced any of this or has any ideas of what could be going on?  I'm so tired of being tired and feeling unwell and exhausted.
