liver hemangiomas and pain

I went to my md for pain in my upper right abdomin, under my rib thinking I had gall stones, after ultra sound they found a few hemangiomas on both lobes of my liver, I had a mri to confirm them and was told yes and to come back in 6 months for another ultra sound. I do however still have pain and it feels like something is there, I was also told they didn't feel this is what is causing this pain. What else could it be? and they also suggested I see a gastro doctor. why can't anyone give me a streight answere on this suject?? Is it possable I was miss diagnosed and they are some other form of tumor?? thanks

i was told of my liver hamongomia last year.  yes it feels like
something is there.  there actually is a blood thing there.
if it is causing pain,you may have to have them remove parts of
your liver.  it is a benign tumor.  you are ok,unless there is
pain.  are you sure you arn't just so nervous about it that is
is causing pain. go see a specialist(hepatologist)
