I don't know if it helps or not. But Doctor Herbert Schwartz at the Vanderbilt clinic was the only Doctor out of about 20 at skyline hospital that sent me to Vanderbilt I had a 13.5 cm sarcoma. Tumor on my femoral artery. Several doctors at skyline said Id die on the table. He didn't hesitate.My wounds not completely healed and I'm still struggling I worked in the garden yesterday and paid for last night, but I'm doing a MRI in a cat scan next month every 3 months.the best doctor I have ever had .Im cancer free after 10 years

We have just been told 24 straight weeks of chemo. We are waiting to hear back about the fox01 gene. If he is positive the chemotherapy regimen will be more aggressive, include hospital stays more frequently. My mom has had osteosarcoma for years and I had no idea about this particular gene. Let's hope it doesn't come back positive.
