    Hi again –

    I meant to answer some questions people have asked. My tumor is about 5.5 by 6 — so pretty large. Has taken three months to diagnose. MRI and cat scan “worrisome” but incolnclusive; first biopsty inconclusive — showed scar tissue which was abnormal and again, worrisome. Second biopsy identified the cells. Not symptomatic — have been fatigued for about a year, but figure that is not probably related. Blood work has remained completely normal (though had a new round last week and have not heard results yet.)

    I am so relieved to hear that the portal vein procedure does not seem to negatively affect people too much.

    Thanks, everyone. It is tremendous not to feel so alone.

    Hi,
    I appreciate all the feedback. I believe there is hope and there are several people posting in these forums who are proof that this is survivable.

    Am getting a second opinion, but don’t expect miracles there. I will continue to post here as things progress. And again — I send my most positive, fighting thoughts to all of you.

    Irene
