Hello -- I was diagnosed with high-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma (stage 1B) in the fall of 2023. I had a total hysterectomy and no evidence of spread was found in the margins or abdomen. No chemo or radiation needed (for which I am very thankful). Yet because it is a highly recurrent cancer, I'm under surveillance with a CT scan every three months for the next two years, tapering off after that (which creates a huge amount of anxiety).

Question for the group -- for others in surveillance -- what advice have you been given about having surveillance at a high-volume sarcoma center such as the Mayo, MSK, MD Anderson, etc.? I've been told both "you absolutely must be at a sarcoma center" and "as long as the scans remain clear, you don't need to be at a sarcoma center." Curious about the experience of others.

Thank you for sharing!
