Re: Liver mets. Am I wrong to want them zapped?

Hmm..I'm not the best resource regarding stats...
But it being limited to one lobe seems to give you lobectomy or partial lobectomy option. (might want a circulating tumor test to inform your decisions)

Some bits on liver met options here:

If you go surgery route, consider:
Opiates/Opioids (accelerates cancer?, alternatives)

If you really want a "targeted treatment", consider a biopsy and chemosensitivity testing
