💚 October is Liver Cancer Awareness Month. Liver cancer can be silent.
More than 3,000 Australians are diagnosed with liver cancer each year, and around 2,600 people die from it. Five years after diagnosis, only around 1 in 4 people are still alive.
But knowing your risk can make a difference.
If you have fatty liver disease, cirrhosis, hepatitis B or C, or another long-term liver condition, talk to your GP about your liver health and whether you need regular checks. Early liver cancer can have no obvious symptoms, which is why staying on top of your liver health matters.
If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with liver cancer, you are not alone.
💚 Liver Foundation is here to help, with trusted information and free, confidential support from liver nurses.
