I have a Mycoid Liposarcoma of the Right Calf and I am scheduled for 25 Radiation Treatments - so far I have completed 12
Some fatigue ut generally feeling good - no pain
I am also in a Pre-Surgical trial for Physical Therapy to determine if this will help in the recovery after surgery

I have completed my 25 radiation treatments - and no adverse damage to the skin - I am scheduled for surgery May 5 - A flap of muscle and blood supply will be taken from my right quadricep to replace the muscle etc from my right calf - 7-10 days in hospital with the critical factor being the flap so ensure the blood supply is good and is healing properly - bedridden first 5 days and then slowly allowed to dangle the leg - surgery expected to take 10+ hours
