scared stiff

ive to have a liver ultrasound on the 27 as i have a few spots that have changed ,this week my sister and my brother in law(not related ) passed away from liver secondries and now with this test waiting for the results are going to be very hard to cope with.i know that iyts not always the case that it runs in families just seems very sad that i lost two members of the family on the same day.

Hi

Try not to think the worst. I was in a similar position a few weeks ago. Ultrasound showed up two small patches on my liver. Had BC 3years ago,bilateral mastectomies and reconstruction, now on Tamoxifen. Anyway when the patches were found on the liver I totally convinced myself that there was nothing else it could be, it had to be secondaries and had possibly the worst 3 weeks of my life, I underwent investigations. Had an MRI which showed no secondaries, only a benign liver cyst and a hemangioma. Went from thinking the worst to feeling on top of the world, and I still do,so try to be positive. My Mum died with liver cancer, which had possibly come from bowel and that was all in the back of my mind worrying me more. I should have been more positive, but the waiting game for results plays havoc with your imagination.
