liver spot
by uhaul, Sep 07, 2008 06:11PM
Hi I finished my chemo and radiation with great results no cancer found. However,there is a tiny spot on my liver which will be checked closer with an MRI. What else could it be? I hear breast cancer spreads first to the liver and spine. Is this true. I met someone else who had breast cancer and docs found a spot on her liver too. She is going for an MRI also.
I did well with the surgery chemo and radiation treatments, however this is driving me crazy and I am scared.
Thanks

Breast cancer can indeed spread to the liver and the spine. This can also spread to a person's lungs. Whether the liver or spine are the firsts organs to be affected is not standard and not the rule for many patients.
The spot in your liver can be both benign or malignant lesions (cancer spread). These can just be simple liver cysts or adenomas. Rather than an MRI, I would suggest you discuss with your doctors about a PET scan, as this would differentiate between a benign a malignant lesion.
Regards and God bless.
