Hi, Sandra was jaundiced over xmas, she had ultrasound scan, hers was due to disease squeezing her bile duct which was evident on her scan as far back as July. It settled at first with steroids but when it returned shortly after she had bile duct stent fitted which cleared up the jaundice. You could have gallstone blocking the duct, the uss will show the cause and it may not be disease related. Your last ct scan should have shown if disease is likely to cause it. Xx

Hi I am sorry that I am not much help, but just to say I am sorry you are having this worry and I hope you get to the bottom of it soon, like Paul says you might have a gallstone or it might not be cancer related. Thinking of you.

Best wishes love x G x

Hi, Sandra has a lesion on her liver since 2011. They tend to sit on the surface of the liver and i,m sure your oncologist is not unduly concerned by it. It could quite simply be a gallstone or an enlarged hepatic lymph node but your scan tomorrow will tell you more. She was also 3c. Xx
