I recently got a CT in which they noticed a possible hepatic angioma. They gave me a Bx (#5) I am a 3a, non-responder, viral load 450,000,000.i have done the old 3xwkly injection/rib, then the study for peg, 1x wkly and then a year of just the injection to maintain viral load. I was a stage 1 and now a stage 2, grade 3. They did not bx the tumor ( a marker of 18.8) my blood work show slightly elevated but not overly. I am on MSI (medical services for the indegent) They dropped me because they were afraid they would not get paid!!! UCI'S Doc wouldn't even see me to tell me the results. Their Office Manager just gave me the test papers and said we'll refer you to another Doc, because we won't get paid. He knew nothing and went by the CTpaper wok I gave him, and said angioma. Dr Hu, at UCI, had said he did not know if it was angioma or cancer. So, how the ??? does this other person know it is not??!!! I am grateful, do not get me wrong, but still not knowing. So......what does this mean to me? I read the readings (on internet) for blood on alt and the other "a" ast?, are reversed when it is cancer. Mine was 51 and 53. The higher one was the one that went towards cancer. I need help, I am scared, angry, I get nausea everyday, I have the spiders on my knees, one on my face, I itch and sweat like crazy, my abdomen bulges out, the fatigue is kicking my butt. I applied for SSI, got denied. I am just running into detours in every direction.
