Liver cyst refilling: What questions should I ask?

@tessa152 what a good topic to bring to the Mayo Clinic Connect community. Allow me to bring @elevinton @foxfire @azkidney57 and @hopeful33250 into this discussion as they have had experience with liver cysts. I'd also like to invite thoughts from @rosemarya and @jolinda as they are familiar with liver disease.

I'll kick off with my thoughts of questions to ask:
1. Why is the cyst refilling and what can I do to help prevent it?
2. When is the right time to consider surgery?

Tessa, do you know what the underlying cause of the liver cyst is?

Hello @tessa152

While I've had liver lesions as well as pancreatic cysts, I have never had liver cysts so I'm not able to give you much information about this problem.

Are you seeing a GI doctor who specializes in liver problems? How are your blood labs for liver functioning?
