Re: Scared of prognosis-stage IV liver mets
Dear KsGal, as the others have said, welcome but sorry we had to meet under these circumstances
I dont want to give you false hope but, on the other hand, you have not received the biopsy results yet. Things besides cancer can cause scans to light up. I am living proof. Last year I had a lung light up and, during the surgical biopsy, the frozen section was deemed to be cancer. So a lobe of my lung was removed on the spot. A few days later we learned that a mistake had been made and it was NOT cancer, but pneumonia. So things are not always what they seem. Keep the faith.
