@digibson, I used Google translate to translate @mrodriguezc's question to you. They ask:
"Hello, this treatment (Y-90) is used for a hepatocarcinoma of the liver. I was operated on in June 2020 and now 3 more hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have appeared. You can help me with your opinions. Thank you"

Digibson, what was your experience with Y-90?

Thank you for the translation Colleen.

I had my three month CT last week and the results shown the one benign carcinoma remains the same and the two that were cancerous were still shrinking. I guess the question is what is causing his liver to spin off these carcinomas. I had hep c and drank more than I should have. Not a whole lot but it didn't help a liver that was being damaged by hep c. My Radiologist told me that curing the hep c and abstaining from alcohol (which I have done) are the best things I can do to keep from getting more. Do you know what the crisis with his liver is?

Best, Diane

I think I have had a total of five tumors, all treated with 3 treatments of y90. They are all either dead or dying and thank God my last scan does not show any new ones. I just pray no new ones pop up. I think y90 is a blessing. Diane
