This was a very informative video. I keep watching it in hopes that my liver lesions are benign. This waiting period is very scary. Thank you again for the video. 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Was diagnosed with liver lesions a few days ago and only did meds for medical reasons as my doctors wouldn't do there jobs they said it was acid reflux and gotten worse over the years. Because of their neglection to properly diagnose me i now have small liver lesion. It took me to get pregnant (2nd child), kidney infection and a x-ray for my lungs for the hospital to find a small lesion on my liver. Wait on MRI but have to do after birth 😕
I have a lesion on my liver as well and am pregnant. I am also waiting to get a MRI after birth. My due date is Dec 2024. I hope our lesions are benign ❤
My doctor just found a small hypo echoic lesion on my liver (1.5cm) during an ultrasound, after two previous US with nothing found. MRI is three weeks away, and I find myself watching these videos over and over. Any advice from anyone?
I'm not a medical professional, but finding a liver lesion can be a concerning situation, and it's understandable that you might be feeling anxious. It's positive that your healthcare provider is taking the next step with an MRI to gather more detailed information. It's essential to wait for the results of the MRI, as it provides clearer images and can help determine the nature of the lesion. In the meantime, try to stay positive and avoid unnecessary stress. Focus on maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet and regular exercise. If you have concerns or questions, it's crucial to discuss them with your healthcare provider. They can provide the most accurate and personalized information based on your specific situation. Remember that not all liver lesions are cancerous, and many benign conditions can also cause them. Waiting for test results can be challenging, but keeping open communication with your healthcare team is key to understanding and addressing your health concerns.
Same here last month us just showed mild enlarged liver now last week us showed fatty liver and a lesion but the doc who read the images didn't even mention lesion as a impression some things can be missed in us depending on the machine and the person doing the us they need to press a bit hard to get clear view
@kathryndalton9867 Hello! Will you be so kind to share your story with me? I’ve been told I have multiple lesions on my liver but waiting for MRI to make sure they are not cancer related. It’s natural to over think and worry so much till you have clear answers so now I’m stuck in the waiting game for a few weeks. Do you mind sharing with me what you were diagnosed with? Looks like there is some hope that multiple lesions don’t necessarily mean cancer related. It would give me such a peace of mind if you are able to share a bit of what you went through. Thank you in advance.
I was just gotten diagnosed with liver lesions and I am only 20 years old my symptoms are stomach pains, nausea, vomiting, fullness quickly from eating, always sleepy and weakness.
Liver lesions, including hematomas, can exhibit different densities on CT scans due to variations in their composition and the time elapsed since the injury. While some hematomas may appear hyperdense initially due to the presence of fresh blood, liver lacerations and older hematomas might appear hypodense. This is because the blood undergoes changes in density as it breaks down and is absorbed by surrounding tissues. The hypodense appearance in liver lacerations is often associated with the presence of more organized or older blood products. Radiologists consider these nuances, along with clinical history, to make accurate diagnoses when interpreting CT images of liver lesions. It's important to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized information regarding your specific case.
I have a 2.5 cm liver lesion. Most likely cancerous. I’m 72 so haven’t been cheated. I’m just wondering if the chemotherapy is worth it? Sure I’d like a few more years but not if it’s being sick and miserable. I guess that’s not the right attitude to have but don’t want to be a burden to others. I really don’t have a caregiver and my kids have their own young ones to look after.
It’s important to discuss the potential benefits and side effects of chemotherapy with your oncologist to make an informed decision that aligns with your personal health goals and quality of life expectations.
I’m 72 too with a 2.9 liver lesion , mine is probably a melanoma because I was treated for a uveal tumour six years ago and I think it’s spread . You could have years ahead of you and there are far more options than chemo I’m not going to have it either, but some people don’t have an adverse reaction. Your children would rather have you here instead of gone. My advice is give treatments a go if they are not worth it at least you have tried. You never know .
I'm here because a doctor told me that I have a small part on my liver yesterday. He said that it might not be anything serious, but he wants to find out and do an MRI, just in case. To be honest, I'm really scared about this.
I've been going through the same thing. The MRI was nonconclusive. I am less scared now. Many liver lesions are benign. It's scary from r sure. I was asking close relatives about the unthinkable. Best wishes to you. Realize that even cancer, if isolated can be removed, along with part of your liver. The biggest concern is metastasis. It could be just be a hymangioma.
@@andrewhickman4551 I just had Microwave Ablation Surgery for 2.5cm lesion. They burned it away. Unfortunately my lesion is cancerous and not benign. The procedure is very tolerable. I was up and played golf 4 days later. Going forward I’ll have MRI’s done every 3 months for approx 1 1/2 years. After that every year. Cirrhosis is a big cause of the lesion’s being cancerous. You’re very susceptible. I had beginning stage cirrhosis and still got liver cancer.

I'm sorry to hear about your diagnosis; it's important to follow up with your healthcare provider for appropriate treatment and management. ❤️
It’s cancerous and it was horrible when I was first getting diagnosed
Sir i have a confusion that all hematomas are seen hyperdense in CT image but liver laceration (hematoma ) is seen hypodense why ?

Yeah, I am fine. I haven't replied because I was waiting for the test results to come in. But I have nothing to worry about.
