Hi and welcome to HCM. Thank you for your query.
I am sorry about your diease, but you should be encauraged to treate it by all possible methods. Haemangiomas which are symptomatic, larger that 10 cm and which are risky to bleed should be surgicaly removed especailly those in liver and lungs. Also splenectomy should be peformed if possible for improvement of trombocytes levels. Wish you good health.
