Thank you all so very much! You've really put my mind at ease (and helped me to stop being so angry!)
Joan the last words of my cat scan report say, "Clinical correlation recommended" - this was concerning the abdominal wall deformity (bulge) due to my surgery - nothing at all about the gall stones or the hepatic cyst. Still I'll be bringing this report to my new onc - the last time we spoke, he said he likes Pet scans, so perhaps he'll order one for me.
My liver has been a big question mark for a long time ever since I had such high enzymes while in the hospital for staph. The gastro doctor said they were high due to all the antibiotics and pain meds I was on - but even my last blood work showed the enzymes were still on the high side. So reading about the cyst just got me a bit worked up. I feel much better now - and will let you know what the onc says next week.
Thanks again sweet ladies - you are all my heroic angels!
