Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
yes i have been having problems with my liver, i had an mri and it showed a mass the size an egg and my dr said it could be fat or a tumor. i have a lot of symptoms that match both, but i dont have insurance and cant qualify for it. do fat and tumors cause the same symptoms?
Hi and welcome to HCM. Thanks for your query. Such large live lesions should be seriously investigated since if this is tumor then quick management is required and you need to do liver biopsy or MRI scan and have surgery if this is cancer. Otherwise, it can be treated without surgery,but regardess of insurance, you should clear this out. Wish you good health. Regards
