Hello all,
Having been diagnosed with cancerous liver cysts, I am awaiting liver surgery.
A left hepatectomy is what is on the cards for me. I am reaching out to anyone who has had this procedure and their thoughts. I am very nervous.
Thank you for reading.
Good Morning SiCoTo
I have just noticed your post has gone unanswered. I am Brian one of the Community Champions here at Macmillan. I can't answer your question as I have a different cancer however by me replying your post will be "bumped up" to the top of the page and I hope seen and answered by other group members.
I am aware the surgery you are having is the most common liver surgery and I wish you well with it.
Best wishes - Brian.
