3.2cm liver lesion found with ultrasound

Hi. I'm 45 years old and I've just been told yesterday that a lesion has been found on my liver. I've now got a hospital appointmnet with the gastric department in two days time. I have quite a bit of discomfort in my abdomen but no other symptoms. I'm so very worried about the diagnosis and prognosis. It sounds like a cliche, but you really never believe that these things can actually happen to you.

I'd really like to hear from anyone out there who is experiencing anything similar.

  • Hi. I'm doing ok thanks. Just playing the waiting game. It's been one week of worry so far and still waiting to hear about a scan. Hopefully I'll hear something soon.

    That's really good news about your liver. Bet that was a relief. Yes, fingers crossed that the same applies to me re a benign mass.

    How are you feeling about the adrenal gland diagnosis? Hope you're doing ok.

  • Sorry for the late reply. I lost my phone!

    How are you doing today? The wait and worry is so hard. Have you heard anything yet? 
    The dr did tell me there are lots things seen in the liver at ultrasound that are nothing. He basically dismissed the report completely and said they're seen all the time but they must follow up.. Which is good but stressful. 
     

    I don't know what to think about the adrenal gland as they don't know what it is. The only good thing is that it's easily removed so I assume that's what they'll do.

    Hope you hear something soon. I have my fingers crossed for you. 

  • Hi. I'm doing ok thanks. Still not heard anything. I'm hoping that means I'm not a high proirity! My symptoms seem to have improved a little which also helps me to forget about it all a bit more easily.

    Thanks for the info about the liver lesions. It really gives me a boost and makes me feel a lot more hopeful.

    You sound a lot more positive? Pleased you're feeling better. Hope everything works out ok. Keep in touch and let me know how you get on and I'll do the same!

    Take care

  • Hi 

    I'm not doing that well. I was called for an MRI scan and more blood tests on Friday as apparently the CT didn't show as much as they wanted? I can only think the CT must have shown something else for the MRI scan to be needed... but I just have to wait again. 
     

    hows everything with you? Do you have an appointment for your scan yet? 

  • Oh I'm sorry to hear that. I hope everything will be ok. Have they given you any more information?

    The waiting is tough. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

    I haven't heard anything yet. I'll need to be seen sometime this coming week otherwise I'll have exceeded the two week target. Hopefully I'll be contacted this week.

  • Hi how are you getting on? Fingers crossed you get an appointment soon. The waiting is so hard. 
    Ive spent a lot of the weekend feeling awful with a cold just to add to things. I think it's because I'm so stressed and run down. 
    Please let me know as soon as you hear anything. Try not to worry. Thinking of you. 

  • Hi. I've had a phone call to let me know I'm having an mri scan this evening.

    How are you doing? Hope you're ok

  • Good luck this evening. Fingers crossed for you. Please let me know how it goes. 

  • Hi. Thanks for your message. I only got home late. I was on the scanner for an hour! I also had some liquid injected into me to show my organs/liver a lot clearer. They said i should hear something this week. 

    How are you doing? Is your cold any better? Like you said you're probably run down with everything going on. Hope you're doing ok? Let me know if you hear anything. As usual I'll have my fingers crossed for you (and me!)

    Take care
