My wife after 4.5 years of remission went for sonography for a UTI anD there was a incidental finding that shook our life .the doctor told me that there are multiple lesions in lever & she has hepatic mets .we rushed forPET-CT & now results came in the same that she has multiple lesion I lever at suv of 4.6 and some lymph nodes involved in abdomen ,also a spot on illiac bone .this comes after all clear scans on 6th June 2015 so all this developed in last 3 months. I am terrified & my head is spinning when I googled the lever mets prognosis

    what a complete shock. There are lots of treatments for people with mets and there are loads of ladies who have done extremely well on the different treatments. Hopefully some of those will come and chat with you here and give you some advice.

    Many, I'm sorry for the bad news you and your wife just got. Well put when you say it shook your life. Instead of google, read the thread called "How are people with liver mets doing?". When I was first diagnosed with liver mets I was so comforted to see so many women there living with it.

    many, please take some deep breaths. I am sorry to learn of the progression. Please,take this one day, one step at a time. Yes, the news sucks. Try not to scare yourself by looking up too much stuff on Dr. Google. This forum is a good place to find help, info, support and insight. As well as inspiration. Wishing you and your wife the very best

    i have seen your posts before and have been touched by your obvious love for your wife. I am so sorry this has happened. For those of us at high risk , progression to stage 4 remains the deepest fear. I know there are some new treatments and wish you and your wife the very best.

    dear many,

    i am sorry for the news of your wife's liver mets. my mom had extensive liver mets, actually too many to count. she was treated and responded very well. she lived many years and lived until her elder years.

    please read the positive news and treatments available, which may comfort you both.

    I am so sorry to hear this. I know you have worried over your wife's health quite a bit over the past 4 1/2 years, and then you get the news that you dreaded the most. My best wishes are with you and your wife, and I hope they are able to put her into a long remission.
