spots on liver

Tags: spots, liver, worry
I have had a recurrance of ovarian cancer.  I had optimal surgery in January,07.  The spots on my liver are less than a centimeter and have not grow since June.  My oncologist feels I can go without chemo unless my CA level goes up drastically.  I like this because I feel very good but I do worry about not acting fast enough.

Sorry to hear about your recurrence.  There is a procedure which is very successful at treating mets to the liver.  It's called radiofrequency ablation. It kills tumors without affecting the liver.  It's used on a few cancers, and is effective with ovarian cancers.  You might want to research it on the internet.
Best of luck to you.
