Hi
About my mum she has been in hospital with sepisfor over 2 and Dr did a CT scan of the abdominal area and they can see dark shadows around the liver and are staying could be cancer?
Mum can't have MRI due to her pacemaker and now the Dr are say to confirm its cancer they have to do a biopsy. Mum's blood AFP are high in 600 bit this also isn't a clear conclusion for cancer this could also be high with liver cirrhosis and liver disease.
We want Dr to carry out a PET CT as this is a better view of what it is as she can't have MRI but the Dr are not listening to this ...
They can't confirm cancer but they also can't say it's liver cirrhosis or disease.
What can we do or say to Dr to stress we want a PET CT and surely they can repeat this in a few week bloods too and see if her marks have gone down or not?
Please can u advise
