Hi there,
Thanks for posting in HCM,
Your LDH is on the higher side. The CA 125 is not significantly raised.
Metastatic adenocarcinoma in liver means, you have a cancer elsewhere and it has spread to liver. Since the cancer is an adenocarcinoma, the most likely site is colon from where it would have spread to liver. You can get a colonoscopy test done to look for cancer in the colon.
I hope that answers your query.
