Found out yesterday I have 3 lesions on my liver. We’ve been monitoring the size of one for a year, and the other 2 are new. Trying not to get ahead of myself and wait for the specialist to tell me what I’m dealing with. Times like this I’m very prone to slipping into a depressive episode but I’m really trying to stay calm and optimistic. I definitely don’t want to compound things by being depressed if I can help it. Wish me luck!

Sorry to hear that you have lesions on your liver Sawdust23. Waiting is difficult and it’s easy to feel depressed and anxious. I hope you don’t have long to wait until you hear from the specialist. Wishing you the best of luck. 😊🍀

thank you. I’ll do my best to stay positive while waiting for more information. I’ve been down this cancer road before, some 21 years ago. It wasn’t fun and I guess I’m dreading the same thing. Thanks for positive vibes!!
