Hello @tlf56831 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. There is another NET member, @davisnrn, who has used Everolimus. I hope that she will share with you.

What other treatments have you had? How are you feeling?

I am recently diagnosed with metastatic neuroendocrine tumors in my liver. No know origin. Grade 2 with 6-8% KI-67 index. When you were diagnosed in 2020 was there any discussion of treatment? Maybe your tumor was grade 1 with low KI-67. I am deciding whether to watch and wait or start a treatment. Thanks for sharing.
