HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the metastasis developed then it can be stabilized but chances of this is very minimal and prognosis is not good in such case, still depends how far the metastasis taken place and how the patient is doing what the vital organs are doing hope this information helps.
