Thank you everyone for your replies. It makes me feel less alone in this. Next week is a big week. Monday body CT scan since my AFP levels are high. Wednesday meet my liver specialist. Friday liver biopsy. Having trouble staying positive. Don’t mind saying I’m scared. Thank you all again, Joe

@joemina: I am so sorry to learn of your liver cancer diagnosis. However, there are tests being done soon that may reveal specifics about your cancer that may change the diagnosis.
Try not to let your mind jump to disasterous conclusions, like I did 3 yrs ago. The biopsy and pathology radiologist’s report will give Dr. and you specifics needed to determine diagnosis.
Be positive as possible prior to tests and procedures. You can do this! Walk through this next week and know you are doing all you can. We all recall those difficult days before we knew the score. It is normal to be anxious in regard to the wait time for test results. We call it Scanxiety!
You can do this! Best for you…
