Brief Answer: maybe Detailed Answer: Hi XXXX, Thanks for writing to HCM. Its the individuals genetic make-up that determines all these things. You are in a way lucky, that you get only benign tumors. As many are not so lucky, coz they get combinations of malignant one. No one can predict that you will or won't grow more tumors nor does anyone can ensure you that if when they will grow they will be benign only. As the age advances, the possibilities of having a malignant tumor increases. This is due to progressive decrese in the ability of body cells to detect and repair or destroy malignant cells duging replication. All you can do is, to boost up your body's defence mechanism is, eat and stay healthy as much as possible, keep your blood sugars in check and undergo regular whole body screening, to help detect any tumor in an early stage to maximize the chances of complete cure. Hope i have helpful. Regards Dr. Ashish Verma
