Carcinoid on liver - no symptoms

by Rabbit200, Mar 31, 2008 11:40AM
I had my appendix out last year and a carcinoid tumor was found on the tip - the hystology of which they said was ver low risk.  A CT scan showed masses on my liver.  My blood test and 24 hour urine test was clear.  After referal I was sent for an Octreotide scan (5 weeks later) which showed nothing but the Dr's still think it is carcinoid.  They have taken more blood, I had a colonoscopy and endoscopy done which were both clear and another CT scan done today.   Has anybody any ideas?  I am asymptomatic but clearly there is something there that shouldn't be.
