Hello and thank you for sending the question.
I would like to understand you are question of a little bit more. Your question states if the cancerous cells of mild liver are benign what treatments are available–this does not make complete sense to me. By definition cancer cells are not benign.

I understand. It appears that your doctor requested an ultrasound. It sounds like your doctor suspects that there might be some cancer in the liver. It really depends on the type of cancer within the liver in order to make considerations regarding long-term management and prognosis.
You have reported pain in your chest, sickness to your stomach and diminished appetite. Many different things can cause B symptoms including anxiety and depression. I am not sure that all of your symptoms are related to the findings in the liver. If you can obtain a copy of the ultrasound and send it or skin it for me to review this might be very helpful. Let me know if you are able to do this. Hopefully we can generate some better recommendations for you.
Sincerely,
Dr. G
