Any doctors around? How fucked am I?

I had an MRI on my liver due to some lesions found on a totally unrelated ultrasound. They suspected NAFLD given my weight etc but instead They’ve found something more worrying, but the GP I spoke to couldn’t give me a straight answer as to what the MRI report means. Is this most likely benign or most likely not? GP treated me like I was going to crumble but I’m a very pragmatic person, I just need to understand what I’m looking at here.

Im 33, I have a 2 year old DS and I just need to know how worried I need to be here instead of waiting another few weeks for the next MRI and results from that. If I’ve got liver cancer I know how bad that is and I need to start getting ducks lined up and quacking sooner rather than later.

So if you’re a doctor/ medical and you read the below report, what would you be thinking? You can be honest, I’m completely aware no one can diagnose me from the below, I just need probabilities and ballparks.

@Metabolicallycomplicated great news! You've joined the FNH club! So glad the wait is over for you and all worked out well. Yes they'll probably do endoscopy and fish out the stone, unlikely you'll need a stent.

One thing I did want to ask - I have 4 tumours and everything I’ve read online says FNH usually has just one bigger lesion - is that significant? Is it likely all the lesions are FNH?
