I am getting a biopsy of my liver on Friday.

I'm sorry you went through that. I had the biopsy a week ago. The results are in now, but I'm awaiting the surgeon to call me. The day during the procedure wasn't bad. The next day I had severe pain after the drugs wore off the next day afternoon. However, during the procedure the first technician pressed really hard on my rib cage. I kept saying OW! Then another technician came into the room. He knew what he was doing vs the girl. Since I have a 10 cm mass I just read that a liver tumor can burst with or without it being cancer.

I never read a tumor can burst. I'll look into it.

I guess I'm lucky because I was knocked out during the whole procedure. My stomach pains could have been due to something they did but nobody will admit it and I was not awake.

My primary dr recommended an oncology surgeon. He's the one that scheduled the biopsy but also told me due to the location of the tumor it's inoperable. That's why I'm looking at other options.

Good morning, @helise0802 I’m just following up to see if you received the results from your liver biopsy. I hope everything is ok. Will you require any treatment?
