My friend just found out she has liver cancer, does this mean she will die?
Mу friend іѕ 37 аnd hаѕ bееn through ѕο much. Shе wаѕ healthy before ѕhе wаѕ pregnant. Once ѕhе hаd thе baby, ѕhе found out thаt ѕhе hаѕ a brain tumor, a tumor οn hеr pituatary gland, thyroid cancer, аnd thе latest being liver cancer. Shе′s bееn strong until now bесаυѕе ѕhе hаѕ heard thаt liver cancer kіllѕ уου. Iѕ thіѕ rіght? Iѕ thеrе аnу hope thаt thіѕ саn bе treated? Hаѕ anyone еνеr heard οf a name having ѕο many health issues аftеr having a baby? Anу аnѕwеrѕ wουld bе helpful.
as long as your with her,she can possibly get through all that hits her
delight in your friend while you can.
give her a gentle
hug because you may just by no means get to do it again
SORRY TO HEAR THAT BUT THERES ALWAYS JESUS JUST PRAY FOR HER DAY IN AND DAY OUT AND NEVER STOP
there is no cure for liver cancer, just pray.
it mostly depends how terrible it is.
try being affectionate to her.
when in doubt like and kindness are most helpful
eventually
but open fire on live to a excellent ole age.
I despise to say it but ordinarily liver cancer means she will be gone soon.There is not much they can do to stop it.
Delight in being with her while you can.
Pregnancy releases growth hormones, and these growth hormones may have stimulated cancers she already had, but pregnancy doesn’t produce cancer. This is one unlucky woman.
Treat her with tender loving care.
Excellent Luck to your friend and her new baby!
Most likely she had some form of cancer prior to the baby. There are several treatment options for your friend be sure that she talks with her doctors concerning her options. I would also recommend that she get a second opinion before she chooses a treatment option!
sorry to tell you but once it spreads like this it pretty well is not long before she will die.
Once it affects the brain it causes a fantastic deal of problem on other parts of the body
look it up on line and you will see for yourself that she may have at most approximatly a 5% survival of 5 years..that is the best she can hope for
If she takes the treatments she will be really sick for along time and may not get any better either……do what you can to comfort her and be as strong as you can for her……..that is all you can do
She has Cancer that has metastisized. Stage IV (4). Whats the Primary? Prob. Thyroid with Mets to the brain and liver. this is an ominous sign. Iam very sorry. Her long term survival is slim. She is young, so she will no doubt want to be aggressive, but I guess even with treatment, less than 1 year. The baby had nothing to do with it. She had this brewing before that. Sorry again about your friend. God Bless, and excellent luck!
i’m sorry but i don’t reckon it can be treated fully even if it can with all the other problems she has it might catch up with her and she’s prob. not vacant to make it. This makes me sad it really does. Excellent luck and delight in the time you have and God Bless you, her and both your familes.
Sorry to say liver cancer is not one a name can struggle too well. I have a coworker with the same and she was given 6-8 months. After I had my son I got about a handful new health issues, nothing like this of course, but it changed my life drastically and how I live it. My doctor told me some people can be “allergic” to a pregnancy. Not like your normal allergies, but a pregnancy can really turn your body against you. I can atest to that. Pray for your friend that she can get treatment, but also pray she can find peace. With children i dunno how that is possible.
hmm…if she were to get a really agressive treatment, she might have some opportunity, but it looks like she already has metastasis (cancer spread from one place to another).
Tell her you like her, make her feel there’s people she can rely on and pray for her. Please, i’m not trying to sound doomful or negative, but seems like it’s a small too late to do much than try and pray.
Ordinarily when cancer develops during pregnancy, it will spread nearer, because of all the hormones in the body.
Finally, faith, hope and medicine together have been known to beat the odds many times, so help her find her strenght, try any treatment the docs prescribe, and pray.
no! unless it had metastized to other organs,blood,orlymph nodes.
the liver is the only organ in the human body that can re grow itself,so there is a procees,where they can scrape the tumors off the liver or remove parts of it ,it will regenerate itself.
this is not a guarantee,and not all doctors perfrom this delecate risky surgery. it may be a last resort if chemo or radiation doesnt show progress.
It also depends on what staging she was given,that her cancer is in.1-5
god bless your friend,my mom had metastic colon cancr,mets to he liver,it was too late as she place off her symptoms,and it metastisized
best hospital- boston mass
texas-forgot name
cancer center of america
and they do liver transplants everyday in this country,as long as its localized to her liver
health food store
shataki mushroom
shark cartilage
co-enyme q-10
and more…
they have books there which give diagnosis,then it tells you what to tke for natural healing -
if its mets-some doctors will recommend aggressive chemo-i recomend 1 trial chemo and one other over period of time,not to kill her-chemo is deadly,but if used properly can work! as long as its not mets.
they also have direct feed to liver tx..which isn’t pleasant at all
lots of like for your friend,make sure she has plenty of positive support around her,anyone negative or impatient-keep them away!
has the doctor told your friend that having a baby has contributed to her health problems? there is hope for cancer patients. it all depends on how far the cancer has gotten, and what the treatment is. liver cancer is operable, and the liver can regenerate. chemo can help with other cancers, and there is treatment for a brain tumor (my oldest daughter has one and was treated with gamma ray therapy since her tumor is inoperable. the tumor is not growing at present. she is doing ok). if your friend can keep her spirits up and get excellent treatment, that will help. having friends and family to support her will help too. and her child will give her every reason to battle the cancer and live. keep being a excellent friend to her…your support will help a lot. excellent luck to your friend, i hope she recovers.
The prognosis isn’t excellent, but one by no means knows. There are various treatment options; some may work.
There may be more hope than you reckon. What type of cancer is it? The liver is the only organ that can regrow to full size and function.
Be sweet to her. Do all you can to encourage her.
She may be around for a long time if she gets the genteel treatment. Help her find the best liver surgeon available.
my sister survived liver cancer, she was given 2 months to live after her diagnoisi last september. she went to china for a liver transplant and is still here one year later
