Does anyone else have this?
Hi, I had liver mets last summer treated with surgery and chemo. Does anyone else who has had liver mets with or without liver re secetion have liver quivers.? I'm not sure how else to explain it, except it reminds me of when I was pregnant and felt the baby moving! This sounds wierd, but the more I think about it the more nervous I get. I am on herceptin and zometa right now for bone mets, my onc is not concerned about the quivering and my tumor marker ca15-3 has come down from 74 to 39 and now is 35. If anyone can help me out here I would appreciate it!!!!!
Tammy
