Hemangioma On Liver, Bloating, Nausea, Fatigue. Undergoing Fertility Treatment. Should It Be Removed?
I have a 4.7cm hemangioma on my liver causing discomfort under my ribs and through my back. I am bloated, nauseous, and fatigued. I am also doing fertility treatment s but am currently in a waiting phase and am not on any hormones or medications. Should this hemangioma be addressed or removed before I start back up on my fertility treatments?
Sorry to hear about your problem. Hemangiomas are very common in the liver and they require treatment only if they are symptomatic. There are certain types of hemangiomas which increase in size with hormonal treatment. In your case the lesion is quite big and requires surgery. You should consult a surgeon and have it evaluated.
Hoping for the best.
