I’ve had slightly raised liver enzymes on two occasions since April so was referred for an ultrasound last week. Report came back on the NHS app saying:
‘Within the left lobe of the liver is a focal avascular heterogenous mass that measures 23x32x24mm. A hepatobiliary referral is advised‘.

Trying to keep calm at the moment considering I’m 32 with no other symptoms (don’t drink either) but obviously can’t help feeling concerned. Guessing the next step is another scan i.e. mri?

Yes you will most likely have MRI to characterise it

If you have money then maybe opt to go private to speed it up, its expensive but could be worth it.

Ask if you're on the cancer pathway. If you are then you'll be seen very quickly.
