Where do ovarian cysts occur?
Ovarian cyst occur in the ovary. One ovary on either side of the uterus is placed in your lower abdomen in the pelvic cavity.
Is an egg from one ovary able to move to the other ovary?
Eggs only move from the ovaries to the uterus. They never move from one ovary to the other ovary.
Can you still get pregnant with a small cyst on one ovary and one at your cervix?
Yes it's probably very likely that you could. Check with your Dr to be sure.
Are you at risk of ectopic pregnancy after having one ovary removed and a cyst removed on the other?
I would not think an ectopic is any more likely in the situation you describe. Surgery on the tubes might make an ectopic more likely but not on the ovaries.
Does a corpus cyst mean you got pregnant?
No. A corpus luteum cyst is an ovarian cyst that may rupture around menstruation. It may take up to 3 months to disappear, and they are least likely to appear in women over 50. Such a cyst may grow up to 4 inches long. It may bleed into itself, possibly twisting the ovary and causing pain. In a worst case scenario, such a cyst can twist the ovary enough to cause ovarian torsion, meaning that the blood supply to the ovary in question is getting choked off. That could become a medical emergency. When an egg cell is released from a follicle, the follicle turns into a secretory gland called the corpus luteum (literally, "yellow body"). Its job is to release estrogen and progesterone in preparation for pregnancy. If there is no pregnancy, then usually, the corpus is supposed to break down and disappear. But if things get complicated and the corpus luteum fills with blood or other fluid, then a cyst occurs. Most of the time, the cyst is on only one side and doesn't cause symptoms.
You are 55 and going to have an ovarian cyst removed should you have the other ovary removed also?
Good question. Your doctor probably should have explained this one a little more. From the question, it just sounds as though you are going to have an ovarian cyst removed, yes? If that is the case, they are not going to remove the ovary the cyst is attached to. Just the cyst. No worries, every woman gets every type of cyst EVER. They usually tend to go away on their own, but if they are too big or you have endometriosis, they would prefer removal. (There is no way to tell if you have endometriosis unless you have had a removal surgery before).

Are there other cysts other than ganglion in the foot?
I have a ganglion cyst in my wrist, and I personally know two people with cysts- one has a ganglion cyst on the side of her wrist and one has a ganglion cyst on the top of her hand. One can also get cysts in other places of the body (especially near joints), but I'm not sure if cysts in other areas are also called "ganglion cysts".
What does it mean when 1 ovary is bigger than the other?
It may or may not mean anything. There is always a slight degree of assymetry in humans. However, if one ovary grows a lot bigger than usual, it may be better to be on the safe side, and check with a doctor. The doctor may advise certain examinations, just in case you have something abnormal, like a tumor, or a cyst, for example.
