Hi Violin,
Welcome to our online community. I can see you have posted 2 similar questions so I will answer them both here.
I can appreciate how alarming it must be to read things on our website that you haven’t been told about. It’s important to remember that our information is only general information and doesn’t include people’s individual diagnosis or situations.
It’s unclear what problem you have with your liver, so it's hard for me to answer this. You also don’t mention what type of eating problems you have. But we have some general information about the most common and how to manage them.
How long someone has left to live (prognosis) can be affected by many different things. Your cancer doctor at the hospital would be the best person to ask about the information you have seen today and what this may mean for you. You can usually get in touch with them via their secretary or specialist nurse.
Although we don’t have access to your medical records, we often find we can help more when you give our support line a call, especially if there are certain things you’re unsure about or have read on our website.
Best Wishes,
Amy C, Cancer Information Nurse Specialist
