Thank you for your support!

I had my appointment today and the doctor said he wants to start surgery within 4 weeks through micro-invasive or via open surgery. They are a little bit worried though because my AFP levels are extremely high. They want to do an endoscopy first to double check if I don't have metastasis that they could not see on the MRI/CT.

I am happy that I'm eligble for resection but also a bit worried for the chance of recurrence due to the high AFP levels. I started last week with a medicin called 'Tenoforvir' to reduce my HBV DNA levels and it could lower the AFP levels.

Fingers crossed and have a good weekend,

Daniel

@danieldani, I thought I'd check in. How are you doing? Do you have a date for surgery?
