HavahJ,
I have been battling liver mets for 6 1/2 years. Don't give up hope at all. There are many many treatments out there for you. My liver is still a whole tumor but I will never give up this horrible fight. This past summer I went for a catscan and with in three weeks I was so sick I could barely move had tumor fever's and I felt like it was the end. So I had another catscan and my tumors doubled in size. Being Her2pos is a big factor in that. But I went on a new treatment and I am still here!!!!!!! If you need me please email me at keg5294@aol.com I will always be here for you!
