@Sister Will do. No choice really!

There were three spots on the liver and they were all cysts. SUCH a relief.

However he found a 6mm growth on my gallbladder which will have to be monitored. He said it's probably a polyp but they don't biopsy them unless they're 10mm or more.

It's a bummer about the gall bladder but at least I know. If there's a problem brewing they'll be on to it early. Gallbadder cancer is rare, and usually diagnosed at Stage 4 because it's symptomless until too late. So all in all my stance on scans remains the same:  I'd rather have them than not.

Current state of mind:  phew!

I’ve never entirely understood the body’s capacity to produce apparently useless excrescences such as polyps! But agree, better to know about them. So glad it’s all a relief. A.
