Thanks @helpful33250 (great name)
I just had my first shot of Lanreotide on 08/18 and yes, feeling more normal now. However, due to the wait to see any progress, my concern is that the cancer lesions in my liver may still be growing as they went from 'slow growing' to 'fast growing'. I was wondering if anyone had surgical intervention at this early stage (without any blockage). My surgical team is waiting and as I was the one to find my NETs and prove that the progression has changed to rapid growth, I am not sure if I should be pressing my Oncologist to move the system along.

Hi @ricki8

I understand that you have a lot of questions. Perhaps you can join us for the monthly Mayo Clinic support group that meets via Zoom on the first Thursday of each month. It meets at 5:30 p.m. EST. Look for the registration information that should be coming out soon. It's another great place to ask questions of others in the group. Many in the group have had similar NETs experiences as you have.
