Hi Dee,

I am really sorry to hear your news. I can imagine you're quite scared, it would only be natural. I don't have a lot of advice for you, but I'm sure there are others on the sites who can be helpful.

The one thing that I would encourage is a biopsy of the site on your liver, just to be sure it is really mets. I know of a young woman in Australia who was teated for liver mets, (she had already been treated for a primary early-stage bc) and it turns out that she never actually had liver mets. The supposed met was a hemangioma and she had a lot of unnecessary treatment.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

Jen
