Morning all,
Following a CT last week a 'thing' had appeared in s5 of my liver that wasn't there before. MRI tomorrow but was wondering if anyone had experience of a similar situation? All else was clear apart from one 9mm lesion.
My cancer was very slow growing. The initial liver mets were very small (16mm and 4mm) and didn't grow much between November to February. So this growth is faster than the others. I also had a couple of benign liver lesions.
I'm on capacetabine as 'mop up'. If it is a met am hoping they can ablate it.
All feedback gratefully received!!
Hi
Hope it’s just a benign nodule but will tag in Nelly1955 she has had RFA for a solitary liver met and can Hopefully help you .
My mum had to have a second resection as four popped up the second time . Got to 1 cm each within three months of her first resection but that was the last she had and ten years clear now .
Hopefully it’s nothing but if so I hope the treatment removes it for good !
take care ,

Ah thanks for this it is very strange but somehow I find the non uniformness of it all bizaarely comforting and it sort of alleviates my anxiety.
Hi Elley019, as Court said I had 1 liver mett , this was an accidental fined. I had radiofrequancy ablation. I went in and was given a GA. once under you are placed in a ct scanner which guides the needle. I stayed in overnight. About 4 weeks later I had a liver scan, the dr. Said he was pleased and it went well. I had follow up scans just over a week ago and waiting on results. Send best wishes Nelly xx
