Anyone waiting for liver transplant and diagnosed with liver cancer?

I am in the same situation. Getting an ablation in a week or two. And then the 6 months wait. I’m sure if the cancer comes back they will do another ablation. Hang in there you will be fine. Prayers to you. Rick

@phillydawg, It's good to hear that treatment has gained you some exception points and that things are looking hopeful for you getting your liver transplant! I guess that you know that the waiting time is anyone's guess and that it could happen sooner - or - later that the doctor suggested time.
I found a discussion that I want to be sure that you see because it contains some very helpful information from other members about how they prepared in advance for the transplant. Your comments, questions, and your own helpful tips are always welcome:

Phillydawg, Where will you go for your transplant? Does it involve travel and lodging?

Hi Colleen,
Yes I've had several years ago.
Now they are doing quarterly MRI's since the discovery of the tumor 2 1/2 years ago.
They biopsied that to confirm it was cancerous but no other liver biopsies have been done for years.
Thanks
Larry

Im in the same boat. Waited 2 1/2 years for the tumor to grow to 2CM and had the ablation done back on May 9th, first follow up MRI looks good although they now see some abnormality in my Pancreas. Going in for a biopsy on the 19th of this month. Oncologist said it could be nothing and a possible result of the Portal Hypertension.
Im still working full time despite some common Cirrhosis related issues and the beta blocker fatigue. I want to stay in denial about it all and just continue on as normal. This past year has been a real slap in the face. I was thinking id coast into retirement and see how things go and if necessary get my TX at some point closer to 70 or not at all. Im 63M now. I think we are both fortunate as others have said, that we have some time to plan and accept. My current meld is 13, im told at the end of the 6 months that goes up to approximately 28-30 if nothing changes.
As an old friend told me we are in the bonus round. Ive lived with this hanging over my head since i was 26 when i first discovered i had HEP-C. Lots of living has been done in the past 37 years. My hope is ill do well with the transplant and feel fortunate that i have that option. Not the retirement gift i was thinking about but it truly is a gift right?

My husband has been diagnosed with hepatocellular cancer. What are our treatment options?

I am in the same situation. Had y90 TARE treatment that killed the 3.5 cm single tumor. Just received exception points. All blood work is good. Doctor said I could get call within 8 to 16 months.
