Please keep the posts coming HectorSF. I hope your AFP gets in range to back to TP listing, Illness and this process is an emotional roller coaster ride that is taxing. I've seen it numerous of times. It amazes me how you still give back even when you are going through what you go through. This is my desire in life. YO YOU ARE AWESOME~kelly
sounds like you have a wonderful hepatologist also...priceless. That she is thinking further down the road, also,is a promising sign.
When are the results coming in? Starting the prayers now.
Glad there are some options available..though I'll pray for good resuits coming in and you on your way for that transplant. Gosh....darn timing is everything.
Thanks Hector.....you're always in my prayers.

PS Dr Barnes told me that by the time I may have complications...I may be out of the age ceiling required for a transplant, HMMM.. Also, I moved my cat scan to Friday.....tired of waiting and just want to get it done.
Thank you Hector...
I love Dr Barnes....he really took his time with me (more than an hour and a half..) and listened.
Its an amazing, well oiled machine..that Cleveland Clinic.
Thank you for all your help too....made me chase that beta blocker.
Sending good wishes....Paula
The Cleveland Clinic is one of the best liver disease hospitals in the country. The Gastroenterologists and Hepatologists at Cleveland Clinic are some of the best anywhere.
You are in good hands and very lucky.

Last night I had a great hour talk with my doctor saying everything that is concerning me about my liver cancer and asking about any options for me depending on how things go when we get the results of my recent cancer treatment. She is 2-3 steps ahead of me. She told me about things I need heard of and no other doctor or patient I have known has had done. So at least I have some things to try before I run out of options and hospice is it.
Sounds like you are in good hands. That is a big part of the battle.
Good luck with everything!
