I know I have fatty liver which has possibly progressed to cirrhosis. Now breast cancer.

I was diagnosed with fatty liver three years ago and advised to give up alcohol which I have not managed. I had a routine breast screen which has shown cancer. I know liver problems can prevent chemo, has anyone else had an experience with these two conditions together?

Hi Shirley

Did you have Cirrhosis before HCC ? What were your symptoms ?

in reply to amitc23

Hi I don't have cirrhosis as far as I am aware my consultant never said, I have never drank apart from maybe a baileys at Christmas. I had TACE treatment 3 weeks ago so hopefully it works, I will keep my fingers crossed for you xx

Hi, We are sorry to read of your recent diagnosis.

You may find it helpful to speak to the Cancer research UK nurses who will know more about treatments;
