@creondave: Hi! I have had a history with cysts in liver, gallbladder, kidney, wrist & God knows where; so I am very reluctant when I hear of others following advise to “just wait & watch… probably nothing”.
I made this mistake for years with several specialists all to wait- but I waited too long. For your peace of mind ask for a 25hr urine lab test and seritonin blood work-up.
Finally (with constant diarrhea) led me to get Abd CT scan that revealed suspicious areas. I went to gastroenterologist that performed Endoscopy, took biopsies, and diagnosed Neuroendocrine Carcinoma Tumor Cancer! My primary tumor is in my small intestine with metastases to multiple liver tumors (previous area of cysts).
I “waited & watched” too long!
Anyway, I don’t mean to add fear to your concerns, I only want you to be aware that “cysts” can be benign and sometimes result in my diagnosis. I wish I had insisted in above tests years sooner - I could have caught it before it had spread.
Another reason I wanted to share is that Neuroendocrine Cancer is rare, but many of my peers have NET tumors in their pancreas’s tissue.
Be Well! Be Healthy! dbamos1945
