Now, since he has finished his last treatment, they have scheduled the removal of his thyroid. A calcified ridge on the thyroid was found in a PET scan. Testing has shown there is a 50% risk of it being cancer. He is on medication for his thyroid, so it was recommended to have it completely removed.
Does pleomorphic spindle cell sarcoma attach to thyroids?

@abartels
The thyroid was removed. No cancer was found.
The next CT scan showed a spot in the lung.
Lung biopsy confirmed pleomorphic spindle cell sarcoma.
Surgery in July at St Mary's in Rochester, Minnesota.
Next week, the blood tests, an MRI, and a PET Scan.
