Hemangiomas or Lesion on Liver

Hello, I know its been a couple years since you posted but I wondered how you were getting along now with your hemangiomas. I just found out today I have EIGHT of them with the largest being 5.4 cm x 5.4 cm x 5.1 cm. While I am glad they are considered benign, I am a bit concerned about the size of the largest and whether it will grow or not. The report did not indicate a follow up and I haven't gotten to speak with the doctor who ordered the MRI yet. I just saw the results in my Mychart account. I do have some intermittent, mild, dull pain or discomfort in upper right quadrant and back right flank area. I wonder if it the hemangiomas causing this. Thank you for your insight, wishing you good health!

Hello, I understand your concern. Last year, I went into the ER for abdominal pain. They did a number of scans. I was diagnosed with bladder cancer. I recovered from that. The urologist recommended I see him every 3 months to be checked. While I was in the hospital, they sedated me for an MRI of the abdomen. The hematologist told me to come back and have another MRI done in a year. He told me the hemangioma of the liver wasn’t a big concern. Since I have my claustrophobia, I will have to be sedated again. I get stressed out thinking about the MRI. I occasionally have mild discomfort of the right side. I have many issues. I have GERD, constant nausea, anxiety, stress, depression and no gallbladder. Sorry, I don’t have much insight for you regarding the hemangioma. My mild discomfort could be from that or because I don’t have a gallbladder. I’m not sure if your discomfort is from the hemangioma. Wishing you good health, as well.
