Re: Benign spots on liver/lungs on CT scan?

I just wanted to add about an experience a friend of mine had. She was diagnosed with colon cancer, and there were two spots on her liver. the dr. said that they would watch them and see what happens when she had chemo.

They stayed the same, so the dr said they were benign. About two years later she had a follow up ct, which showed they had grown, and were indeed cancer.

I am sure this is very rare, but it shows that you have to keep an eye on things, because unless it is biopsied, there is no way to know for sure.
