Hi,
I am hoping I am worrying about nothing but I was diagnosed with ER/PR/HER2+ breast cancer (grade2) four years ago and had chemo (FECT), radiotherapy and herceptin. All good and aside from feeling knackered a fair amount (now on thyroxine) all ok. Then about 6 months ago I had a lymph node swell just above left clavicular. I have been batted between ENT and the breast cancer clinic with a couple of ultrasounds (all ok). On my last visit to the breast cancer clinic they decided to do a CT scan (neck to pelvis) with contrast. Neck ok, breasts ok but they have found an "indeterminate" lesion on my liver (approx 1cm left lobe). They are now referring me for an ultrasound of liver. I know I shouldn't but I can't help but worry about it. Has anyone else had similar experiences and was the outcome good?
It is so confusing for us isn't it when our oncologists differ in their approach to treatment. My 2 lesions are both less than 1 cm and they are telling me it is pointless to have surgery although they have requested an MRI to take a closer look with a view to requesting advice from Birmingham ( closest centre if excellence to me)
However they have told me that advise unlikely to differ, so I am wondering about getting my own second opinion ..
