I was diagnosed in 2011 with IBC - two months ago I had an ultra sound, every thing was okay on that scan. June 6th my primary order a CT scan it showed a 7mm lesion in my liver. I had an appointment 6-13-14 to have a biopsy, I received a call on the 13th that said the lesion was to small to do a biopsy, I don t know what to do. could my IBC be returning, what can I say to my doctor to get them to do something?

hello,
I have gone through the description and the lesion is indeed to small to get a biopsy. The available option is to get a Ultrasound screen every month or once in two months to monitor the size of the lesion and biopsy it if it increases in size( biopsy will be possible then)
hope this helps
do get back in case you have further queries
regards
