What is life expectancy after HCC diagnosis with and without treatment?

Life expectancy with HCC varies greatly between individuals and depends on many factors including cancer stage, overall health, and how well someone responds to treatment. The changes in energy levels and physical symptoms described are commonly experienced by people managing liver cancer, as the body works harder to cope with both the disease and treatment effects. Speaking with the medical team about these recent changes would be helpful, as they can provide personalized guidance and potentially suggest ways to manage fatigue and other symptoms during this treatment transition.

🙏🙏hang in there.. I was recently diagnosed with liver cancer and it hasn't been a fun journey... But with prayers and a good support system I'm going to try to kick some ass.. and you will be included in my prayers

As an update I was hospitalized two weeks ago as I couldn’t breathe, they ended up draining 9/10’s of a liter of fluid from my right lung, they did not drain my abdomen as there was less of a build up of fluid and as my liver has expanded they did not wish to take a chance with the drainage needle being so close to my liver. I can breath much better and now walk much longer with better energy. I was told that my Liver Cancer was the cause of the fluid build up. I started my treatment at the same time 3x4 mg of Lenvima capsules per day but under my oncologist’s instructions i have stopped taking them for a couple of days due to heavy itching of the skin. When the inching subsides I can go back to the Lenvima with two capsules per day rather than three capsules per day. I hope this itching stops and taking two capsules a day works. Time will tell.

I was diagnosed with liver cancer and I had a procedure of radiation a couple of years ago, but I found out last week that it was back

James Sorry to read that your cancer has returned, all the best wishes it can be controlled and treated to make you better again.

I was just in the last few days diagnosed with liver cancer that has metastasized. Waiting on appointment at Mayo with a liver oncologist after waiting for two different biopsies to get the correct results. I am a liver transplant patient at Mayo since 2017. Continuing with the anti rejection drugs I have been prescribed. I have ad no issues with the liver since the transplant. Diagnoses of liver cancer is a major surprise for us. I
