How Can An Enlarged Liver Be Treated?

Newly diagnosed with enlarged liver. Scheduled for more testing on Tuesday. Not an alcoholic, legs and feet swollen to twice their size, jaundice, painful abdomen, stomach is swollen. Everything makes me nauseous. I may need to fly before test results come back. Wpuld be flying a total of 13 hours with a 3 and a half hour layover in between flight. Should I hold off on my trip until my test results come back?
