The last sentence on the findings is somewhat confusing, but I'm thinking its just an error.[/quote]

Today news that I have a 5mm spot on my liver from CT Scan. Terrified (again). Colectomy in 2013 removed 1/3 my colon (sigmoid colon CA) and I had no lymph nodes infected...but no chemo trials either. Family hx of liver CA. Anyone know how fast CA grows in liver? Spot was there in 2014 also, but dont know size then either. Shakin in my boots.

What did your doc say?
If the 61 in your ID is to disclose that you're from 1961, you're well into your 50ties, and no longer have the perfect body that we all would like to have forever. At least that's how I keep my cool when seeing all the irregularities in my scan reports.

I have a prominent spot right in the middle of my liver (see my earlier post here). My onc-surgeon pointed it out when reviewing one of my earliest post-op scans, turning around his monitor as he always does, with the comment that it had been there all the time and didn't grow. He wasn't worried about it and I believe him.

This, of course, is no guarantee that your case is the same, but for heaven's sake don't panic without having consulted your knowledgeable doctors. They have the knowledge and the experience. Trust them and live life.

I hope/wish your spot that is 5mm now, has been there all the time and is innocent.
Get on the phone and ask
