Very interesting writeup on this new development Tom. I noticed you did the SIRT procedure on June 1. Did you do both lobes at the same time or stagger them? SIRT has a special significance to me as I would have had it done for my mother if we had been aware early enough. I believe in my heart it would have helped her metastatic tumors which were confined solely to her liver.
How was the procedure and recovery? I read it sometimes takes quite a while for results to show on CT scans. Hope you are feeling better. I have read that sometimes SIRT can dramatically improve how you feel if your liver tumors are symptomatic/ causing weakness.
