Y-90 liver cancer treatment: What's your experience?
Liver Cancer | Last Active: 4 days ago | Replies (216)Comment receiving replies
Hello everyone. I am new here. I just had my mapping done on the 16th, and tomorrow is another surgery. I was diagnosed non alcoholic auto immune hepatitis 3 years ago, but last summer spots appeared on my liver, and after MRI , CT, blood work and ultrasound, here I am. /The doctor who did the mapping said they want to go slow in inserting the 'seeds' so not to trigger liver failure. I'm being treated in San Francisco. This is all new to me. I'm alone without support.

Stay on here, we’ll support you. THe procedure isn’t much different than the mapping These guys are so good at what they do and have had so much training not much should go wrong. As i said in the prior post its pretty successful. Research I’ve done states in studies its 95 percent effective.
