Hey Donna,
Could not PM for some reason, anyway I wanted to ask since you and I are dealing with multiple mets in the liver, and inoperable at this point until enough shrinkage. Do you still have pain in your liver? It's not severe but feels tender and if I take a real deep breath it feels tender. My last scan showed that the tumors are shrinking but still not at an operable state.I am also having back pain was wondering if you had the same. I am not taking pain pills at all. I am on Folfox with avastan but they have cut the Oxi. Anyone if you have any info on this it would be much appreciated. I just knew of Donna not having a resection and was almost the same as my dx. Thanks, Patti

    Patti, pain when breathing
    Hi Patti, forgive me for eavesdropping!

    Pain when you breathe in is a symptom of gall bladder stones/ attack. My only pain was in my back and a 'stitch in my side' when I breathed in deeply. That 'catch' is called Murphy's Reflex and is a 'test' for gall bladder attacks/ stones.

    Still praying for your healing!

    Diane
