cmfarmer Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 I am a 77 year old liver cancer patient living in Chiang Mai. I would like to meet up with similar liver patients in Chiang Mai for a drink. I would like to exchange information how your doctor treats you, what medications you receive, how you go about your daily life. Liver patients in Chiang Mai who are interested to meet please send me a message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impulse Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 (edited) You guys tried Meetup.com? You may reach a wider audience. Full disclosure- I have no association with meetup, nor any affiliations. On topic, I just had a routine abdominal CT scan and they found a 3-5mm cyst on my liver. Doc says not to worry (but follow up annually), but I don't trust BKK doctors' diagnosis since my 4x bypass debacle. Any words of advice here in the land of uncooked fish?

Mekong Bob Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 If I were you, I would ask for a biopsy of the cyst/mass/tumor. Subsequent pathology report will be definitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top Singapore doctor told me the same thing about a similar cyst every year for about 3 years. Since there was no change in the size of it, he switched to follow up CT scan every 2 years. Eight years now still no change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
