I had chondrosarcoma in 2002 for two weeks. A lump on my sternum was growing, lump removed, lump was sarcoma growing in rib. pieces of 3 ribs and pieces of sternum removed, gore-tex patch sown on. no sign or symptoms since. last CAT scan was 2 weeks ago.
all I have to pass on is get that lump or bump that lasts more than a week looked at. My tumor was grade 1, very early.

Welcome, @oldsailor71. Hearing from someone who has been there is encouraging. Reassuring that after surgery, you remain sarcoma-free for the past 22 years!
