I m having a horrible time with chemo, keep ending up in hospital. My CT’s can said cancer has moved to the liver, can this be removed? Maybe with radiation?

Are you aware of what your stage was when you were initially diagnosed?

Yes! You need a good hepatobiliary surgeon involved in your care.
If there are multiple tumors you may need to continue chemo for shrinkage and there are some interventional radiology techniques that can be used to get you to surgery.
Without a much more detailed description of your situation it’s hard to say which approach. But take heart!
Yes. Liver can be dealt with.
Strengthen your body and your mind and seek the best help. Perhaps second opinions!!
