Hi guys,
i got a call from my doctor about my scans and the lungs and bones are stable, but there are 2 new spots on the liver since december. She is not 100% convinced it is cancerous and we will be doing a PET next week to check that. She said it could be focal hyperplasia or necrosis or something like that too. My blood work came back great as far as function tests go.

I could use some advice or experience from you wonderful people about any of this. I'm pretty upset. Love to all of you and thank you in advance.
