Anyone have a liver biopsy?

Posted by jeshaw6801 @jeshaw6801, Mar 20 12:29pm

My latest scan mar 13 gave an ambiguous result.
Because I haver fatty liver , it was recommended to have MRI. But I will have a liver biopsy because I can't have MRIs. Any out there have. A similar case.. We want to rule out liver met.

Yes, the liver biopsy was done last Tuesday and yesterday I saw my 2nd opinion oncologist. Next week I see my original oncologist to hear his opinion and direction. The liver was positive for metastatic LMS. I am probably going to have chemo as a first step. I will have an opportunity to be in a clinical trial as well. I told the family this week. I will share with friends next week.

Thanks for remembering. Life is a blur right now. My friends and family are keeping me wonderfully cared for. My kids looked like deer in the headlights 🦌. The were okay with 90 day scans but now with chemo they are hit with the reality Mom is facing some tough times. I get a port next week and the following week and echocardiogram and a updated CT scan Monday and my first chemo on Thursday. I am going to receive the current standard of care for LMS. Doxorubicin and Tribectedin.
