Need advice about liver spot
Since my dx in March '03 all has been well. I was stage IIIa, had mastectomy and was in the herceptin trials (got it with the taxol). My onc. doesn't do routine scans but does do tumor markers. The marker in December was still within normal range but had gone from 12 to 21. I expressed some concern and he agreed to send me for CT of chest, ab and pelvis along with bone scan.
Everything came back good but there was a notation about a spot on liver (2mm) which was too small to evaluate. Onc. stated that it most likely is a cyst and didn't recommend any follow-up. My question is at what point do liver mets start messing with blood work (liver enzymes) results? Also, can a sonogram be done as follow-up or is there no such thing as a liver sono?
