I have an appointment tomorrow with a liver specialist and I intend to ask her about the cysts on my liver as well as my overall liver condition. I will update my post following my appointment. To date not even my gastro doctor has been able to tell me anything about whether or not I should be concerned about liver cysts. Naturally, I want to know what you want to know as well.

FRANCES, I HAVE LIVER and Bile Duct Cancer. The cancer started in my Bile Ducts a nd spread to my liver. My primary risk factors are heavy Chronic Alcohol Abuse and working with Vinyl Chloride. Yes, the same toxic chemical in the bad train wreck. Your doctor will look at your blood work and the " markers " and go from the there. She could order more tests like an ultrasound or a PET/CT scan. I had both and then did a year of chemotherapy. The chemo did it's job a stabilized the cancer. I have the normal listed side effects which have been tolerable. Feel free to contact me on this forum. I am John in Houston. Be Well. I have a lesion on my liver.
