I have an extended weekend this week. I have taken off both Monday and Tuesday of next week. I have taken Monday to enjoy with John as he has the whole week off. Tuesday I have off for my appointment at the Lakeridge Health/McMillan Cancer Centre. This will be our second visit with Dr. C, the Oncologist. I imagine, having now received the MRI results we so anxiously awaited, we will be discussing next steps and the idea of Interferon treatments. The MRI results by the way were good; if you hadn't already read previous posts, our best case scenario. The spots on the liver, "hemangioma's"-harmless.
Liver hemangioma (he-man-jee-O-muh) is a noncancerous (benign) mass that occurs in the liver. A liver hemangioma is made up of a tangle of blood vessels. Liver hemangioma is sometimes called hepatic hemangioma or cavernous hemangioma.
Most cases of liver hemangioma are discovered during a test or procedure for some other condition. Most people who have a liver hemangioma never experience signs and symptoms and never need treatment.
...So upward and Oncologist!, here we come! ; ]
