mass in my liver

[gonelifting]

I had a CT on my chest and they saw a mass on my liver, got an MRI and it was ok. I am NOT or was never ON anything is there anything else that I should be looking at for this reason? Diet? protein intake?
This was about 6 months ago and everything is fine but I`m wondering about it. what would cause a mass?

a tumor ?

The ct could have been in error or mis read if a follow up mri said that your ok. I would not fret it.

Lots of things like focal fat, or benign tumors/cysts even cancer which is most people's concern, so do you have hx of cancer. Some people just have these things. I see masses all the time with ultrasound and they turn out to be nothing special, how are your liver funtion tests(bloodwork). If everything is fine I geuss the question is should you be worried about it? I just dont know, but it wont hurt to get a second opinion to relieve any anxiety you may have. This is why some clinicians dont like to tell pts what they find b/c it can do more harm than good, but we have to.

thanks all. I`m not worried about it, just was wondering. It`s funny how one guy says "don`t fret it" and the other "tumor?" lol No history of cancer btw
