How big was everybody’s tumour when it was removed?

Mine was 15x15cm which I thought was big but my doctor said it wasn’t that big…

  • Mine was 6cm via ultrasound scan and then a couple of weeks later it was 10 cm via MRI scan. My GP said that was because MRI is more accurate but I don't know.... Am waiting for a CT scan.

  • Yes MRI is definitely more reliable than CT scans.

    My size didn’t change between the 2 though but I’m just wondering how big is really considered big. Mine was pushing against several organs but is earmy stage apparently- good news but I do find it a bit confusing.

    I’m guessing growth is different to spread though - it was pushing and sitting on some organs but maybe because it hadn’t gone into any of them and could just be lifted off, it hadn’t “spread”…

    Hope you get answers soon. Good luck!
